From Our Lady's Mirror, Winter Number 1935:
"The Map depicts the roads leading to the Shrine from Houghton,
Wells, Norwich and Egmere, as well as the rail road. [text continues below the
picture]
S. Francis
of Assisi is seen grieving over the destruction of his Friary. S. Augustine
of Hippo still extends his blessing to all who visit the ruins of the Priory,
once occupied by his Canons. The entrance gate will be recognised by frequenters
of the village, as will also the old pump house in the Common Place. The Hospice
of Our Lady and the Black Lion Hotel are also marked, so that visitors need
have no difficulty in finding their hostelries, and the names of several streets
are also given, so that pilgrims who are sleeping in other houses can, with
the aid of their card, easily find their lodgings."
Miss Chadwick revised the map in 1963 - to see it click

and a teatowel
now on sale at the Shrine shop.
