**If there are people (with their own transport) travelling up before the weekend of 26th October, there's going to be Gregorian Chant Vespers at the lovely historic church of the Immaculate Conception and St John of Beverley on Friday 25th - probably at the late time of 7pm to allow for local people travelling as well as anyone else. It's the traditional Feast Day of St John of Beverley, so I decided it was too good an opportunity to miss! The church is approximately 20 minutes driving time from York, and can be located at:
Lakeside, Tadcaster LS24 9PH
