About this audio guide
This guide to Holy Trinity Church on Goodramgate in York centres on Easter Sunday in eighteen thirty-four, when the diarist Anne Lister and the heiress Ann Walker came to an ordinary morning service with a private purpose of their own. It touches on the rituals the Church of England would and would not offer two women, and on what Lister chose to write down that day. Listen from one of the high-sided box pews, lit only by window and candle.
