St. Helen’s, Bishopgate, Norwich

St. Helen’s, Bishopgate, Norwich

This is a very interesting church part of which was used as a hospital. The Norwich Historic Churches website does say that the church is open every day. It wasn’t when I went and there wasn’t any indication as to when it might be accessible outside of a Sunday service. There is a church website – sainthelenschurch.co.uk which doesn’t give any visitor information either. This is a shame as this place could have a significant ministry to the many visitors to Norwich as well as local people. The Cathedral is only a couple of minutes walk away – fortunately this is open and makes no admission charge either, which did help to counter the disappointment of St. Helen’s.

I have to rate this a very poor.
