  • The Parish of Marston Moor Encompasses St. Mary, Askham Richard; St
    The Parish of Marston Moor encompasses St. Mary, Askham Richard; St. James, Bilbrough; All Saints, Long Marston; All Saints, Rufforth and The Epiphany, Tockwith. There are schools in four of the five villages, three of them Church of England and one community, and the Ministry team and parishioners across the Parish are delighted that we have such a great relationship with all of these. We are pleased that you have decided to apply for the post of Head Teacher at St. Mary’s and hope that you find the school as welcoming and loving as we do. We realise that a new Head Teacher will bring new ideas but we are hoping as a church that we can continue to have a fruitful relationship with the school in the years to come. Due to the large catchment that the school covers my colleague Richard Battersby, from the churches of ‘Rural Ainsty’, shares the weekly worship we provide in school. There are also regular Open the Book and Godly Play worship which is led by our Reader, Ann Watson, and Sue Elgie, an RPA and Churchwarden, also helps out with the worship and is the main contact between school and church. We have held ‘Experience Church’ days in the church and the school use the church for worship termly, the offer is always there for the school to use the church as often as they wish. Due to the fact that there are 4 primary schools I have taken the decision that I would be unable to be a Governor at all of them so I have passed my role onto very competent members of our congregations, who can focus much more time and energy to the tremendous work that the governing body do.

  • Gilbert and George's Artistic Mischief
    August 4, 2005 Gilbert and George's Artistic Mischief By CAROL VOGEL LONDON - When Gilbert and George returned from the Venice Biennale in June, they found something mysterious in their mailbox: a brown cloth hood, the sort that a monk would wear. It was not the first time the artist duo returned home to a bizarre surprise. Four years ago they discovered a handwritten fax from the North Yorkshire police that began: "Dear Gilbert and George, we would like to question you about a killing." The body of a student had been found stuffed in a suitcase and dumped in a ditch near the village of Askham Richard in North Yorkshire. She had been bound and gagged with two-inch-wide tape decorated with a pattern of men's faces on a blue background. The tape, purchased at the Tate gift shop, had been designed by Gilbert and George. Soon after questioning, the police realized the artists had nothing to do with the murder. As for the hood, Gilbert and George have carefully hung it on a coat rack in the entrance of their home. No. 12 Fournier Street in Spitalfields, a neighborhood in London's East End filled with George I houses built by French Huguenot immigrants, is an 18th-century paneled structure the artists bought and restored themselves 30 years ago. Their studio is reached through a small courtyard out back that features a 19th-century fountain with the inscription "If a man thirsts, let him come unto me and drink." For more than three decades Gilbert and George have made a profession out of being naughty.
