The Parish of St Martin-on-the-Hill Scarborough is a beautiful church that stands on the South Cliff. The Catholic Church was a new to the area, as previously Scarborough had only experienced Anglican forms of worship.
To provide a church that was beautiful and reflective of the new style of worship, G.F. Bodley was chosen to design the building, he was a new up and coming young architect. For the interior, the company Morris, Marshall, Faulkner & Co, who had built up a reputation for their glass, ironwork and wood Pre-Raphaelite work.
The church architect Bodley was hugely influenced by the pre Raphaelites, which were spearheaded by Morris, Rossetti and Burne-Jones. St Martin’s is one of the best kept ‘survivor’ churches, as one designed by Morris & Co, all are artistically valuable, but this is one of the most valuable pieces of victorian art.
Our favourite aspect of the church was the west window. It is by Morris, and is of Boaz and Ruth in the harvest field, depicting the good harvest of 1863. The piece is truly beautiful, stand alone it would be worth a visit, but with the rest of the beautiful interior, and indeed exterior, it makes the church a must see!

We couldn’t resist another pic of our bonfire night set up! 🫶🏻 our PVC fabric is such a popular option for the table as it’s wipe clean, so any spills can just be quickly fixed 🫧 We wouldn’t reccomend lighting sparklers in the house or over your tablecloth though! 🙃

A pvc tablecloth is fantastic as it simply wipes clean which often makes it our top pick for meal times, they come in many Morris designs and are sold by the half metre to fit every table, it won’t fray so doesn’t need a hem 👻 keep watching to see who our tea guest was 😉

Getting craft ready for Halloween with our little wool ghosts! 👻 We’re going to use them on place settings and on a Halloween tree 🎃 Super easy to make, all you need is wool, felt or googly eyes and some glue 🤎 we hope you like our first crafty video, we started with one ghost in the background and re did this video so many times we ended up with a whole ghost party- and we ended up covered in googly eyes 😂 The idea of the ghosts was from @thepomwreathcompany 🧡
