(The Minster Church of

St Michael & All Angels, Sunderland)

    Welcome to the "Minster" pages.  

        1)  As usual, differently coloured and underlined words are, mostly, hyperlinks and by 'clicking' on these with your mouse you will visit the appropriate image or linked text. 

        2)  Bringing the mouse arrows over the pictures will often bring up a brief comment about  the picture. If the picture itself forms a hyperlink, the message will invite you to Click on the mouse to follow the link.

        3)  Visit the other pages in this section by clicking the names at the top of the page -- but first click on the picture below to enter the site proper.

 

 

TO START WITH A 'DISCLAIMER'.  This is not the official website of SUNDERLAND MINSTER, which has been under construction for a considerable time. The great news is that it will, hopefully very shortly, be with us under the address www.sunderlandminster.org  It will no doubt be a much more professional, detailed and informative site than this, 'in your face', offering of a mere (but sincere) amateur. The Minster staff will  let me know when the Official Site is 'Up and running' and I will then confirm it HERE. The Minster e-mail address is admin@sunderlandminster.org (click this link to access).  

 

   Changes to this website, other than times of service, etc, occur most often in the "News and Views"  page . I have rebuilt this page so that it contains references to all the subjects formally covered here, but with access to them via links in the table on the left hand side. Most of the pictures in that table are still merely linked to a larger version of the picture - other that the one showing the clergyman, Roland Meredith which links to his time here in the 1950s.  

 

This site generally aims to give as much information as possible From Low Row,not far from the criticized (rather unreasonably) Travelodge Hotel, which I maintain serves in the same way as the lodgings provided in true Minsters centuries agoabout Sunderland Minster.

 

 

Please click on the picture to the left to gain access to the main site

  My main intent is to cover something of its history (which is extensive) but chiefly it is intended to show that this site still houses a vibrant church and community which welcomes everyone.

The text for both the Rectors page and also the History page is not my work and I acknowledge this with gratitude to the authors of both pieces. They have given me immense pleasure in reading both texts, and I take equal pleasure in, hopefully, introducing their work to other readers. 

The photographs are my own efforts and I hope that they add to enjoyment of these pages
