Britain's What's On Event Guide
Whitgift - tour and exhibition at St Mary Magdalene church
Heritage Open Day: The Church of St Mary Magdalene is an Anglican church in the hamlet of Whitgift, located by the River Ouse.. The church is noted for its clock which displays the number 13 in Roman numerals in what should be the 12 o'clock position! St. Mary's church, Whitgift, is a 13th century church built after the previous church was destroyed in a dispute over tithes and the stones were removed to Adlingfleet. The church sits on the banks of the River Ouse next to where the Whitgift ferry crossed from near Metham on the north side of the river. This was a major crossing point from north to south used by Charles I on his way to Hull and also on several occasions by John Wesley.
