Lost sacristy opens
A LOST medieval sacristy at Westminster Abbey will open to the public for the first time this week as part of a new tour of locations.
The 13th-century room was used by monks to prepare for church services and housed clothes and sacred items for Catholic mass.
The sacristy was discovered as part of an archaeological dig in September 2020 alongside one well-preserved skeleton of what is believed to be a 12th-century monk.
