Five Members of the Utrecht Brotherhood of Jerusalem Pilgrims Pilgrim by Gheorghe Tattarescu Equally disturbing in the Middle Ages was the frequent assimilation of crusade to pilgrimage, a real corruption of the pilgrimage idea and a repeated historical occurrence whose repercussions are still with us.

The other area where great changes have taken place is what may best be described as agricultural and land management practices. Robert feels that times have changed and he tries to introduce what he sees as modern techniques, such as electrification of the agricultural labourers’ cottages to cutting down old woods and making large, productive fields. Tom is very much against this. He likes the old woods and feels electrification is too expensive for the cottage of one of the elderly labourers. Again, this issue will crop up throughout the book.

I join a two-day, late-summer water-pilgrimage along the River Avon to the Roman city of Bath — whose hot springs were dedicated to the goddess Soulis, worshipped by both the Romans and Celts alike for her gift of water. As we gather in a café in Frome town centre, to get to know each other over coffee, on the first morning, it is clear that fleeces and walking boots are de rigueur for latter-day pilgrims. The key theme of this book is Tom’s views of the past and the present and how much things have changed. We see this particularly in two areas. (In the area of romance, it does not seem to have changed much as John, the son of Bill and Amy, Ann, the daughter of Edward, and Robert, the son of Lucy, all seem to do as badly if not worse than the previous generation.) I HAVE never thought of myself as a pilgrim. After a stressful few months, however, I needed some time away. Pilgrimage was a huge part of British life in the 15th century: a vast network of places was available for pilgrims to eat, rest, and sleep. But, after Henry VIII banned “wandering to pilgrimage” in 1538, the tradition largely disappeared in the UK.Funeral of former British prime minister Margaret Thatcher on April 17, 2013, in the English Hymnal version.

And so, we come to the present Jewish festival period, between Pesach and Shavuot, when Jews all over the world count the Omer, and prepare for the receiving of the Torah on Sinai. For many, the first 33 days of this 49-day period is one of semi-mourning. And on the 33 rd day, known as 'Lag Be'Omer', people rejoice. They build bonfires, have their hair cut, get married and concentrate on the final 16 days which lead to the festival of Shavuot. This culminates in the giving of the Torah to all the Jewish people by G-d via Moses at Sinai. I've written about last year's festival here. But, just as at Hillsborough, blame has already been apportioned without all the facts being known. And it might take a very long time to assess exactly how the 'avalanche' started. He does try to keep up religion in the modern period, with family prayers, but clearly sees it as a lost cause, to his great disappointment, though he is very gratified when Ann starts going to church. However, when it comes to his will – and he has redone it many times – he seems to favour Blanche (wife of his nephew) who may be a prig but she’s a Christian at least. This issue of religion will come and go throughout the book.And in history, we learned about 'The Pilgrim Fathers' who left these shores in 1620, making for their own Promised Land of the Americas – and some of them even learned Hebrew, and some also espoused Jewish values. We gather on the wooden pews, a fresh flower garland above the altar, to hear the story of Sir Thomas Champney and his faithful dog Azure, as captured by Sir Henry Newbolt’s poem “Fidele’s Grassy Tomb”. The English poet is buried in the grounds, where we hungrily devour our picnic lunch. Again, our guides encourage us to rest our foreheads against the east wall, to feel the energy and memories of the church. Mr Hayward looks thoughtful. “Our pilgrims tend to have moments of quiet epiphany, not whizz-bang moments. It’s about giving them an experience. Whether they enjoy it or not, it’s still an experience.”
