St Theodore's Way, Salford to Clitheroe - 43 miles, 4 days
A pilgrimage to honour Theodore of Tarsus for his role in unifying the English Church in the 7th Century
The Catholic Diocese of Salford was one of the first to be established post-reformation in 1852 and was of particular service to the Irish migrants fleeing the Great Irish Famine around that time. This 43 mile pilgrimage makes use of a number of other long distance paths north of Salford to bring the pilgrim eventually to Theodore House, a renovated mill and place of Christian study and retreat.
The route is named after Theodore of Tarsus, Archbishop of Canterbury from 668 to 690, who helped unify the English Church after the Synod of Whitby and successfully promoted Anglo-Saxon scholarship.
The route passes through a mix of terrain from canal tow paths, suburban walking in places, farmland, footpaths and quiet roads.

Discover holy places, and bring your own beliefs.
Pilgrimage by foot is connected with places and landscape, and how those places make you feel. Read about holy places.
At the British Pilgrimage Trust, we believe a pilgrimage should be made on an individual’s own terms. We are founded on the principle that we can all bring our own beliefs to the journey, accessible and welcoming to all.
