Sunday off
Sunday 12th August 2012
A morning in the congregation at St Cuthbert's Corsenside was very restful for me. I particularly enjoy singing hymns accompanied by parishioners on fiddles. At the end of the service they played a Northumbrian piece called "Wallington Hall". There's a sense that this music belongs to a tradition which would have been part of Cuthbert's culture and which contributes to the feeling of continuity and timelessness in this ancient church.
