Pales: a living testimony

Peter Rivers writes about new steps at the Pales Meeting House

by Peter Rivers 28th July 2017

A few years ago I went to Woodbrooke, the Quaker study centre, for a weekend run by the Kindlers. I found myself sitting next to Lynda Williams and in our introductions to each other told her I was moving to Shropshire. She told me she was from the Pales. Clearly, I was meant to know what that meant but I was new to Quakers and ignorant of most things.
