In recent years, we have been commemorating Good Friday with an ascent up Brent Tor. We go up to the church of St Michael at the top. On the way, members of the church community carry out dramatised re-enactments of the events of the Easter story, in full costume. The scenes are based on the Stations of the Cross, an ancient Christian tribute during Holy Week, and now updated for the 21st century.
