Two new Icons of St Peter and St Paul by Aidan Hart have been installed recently in the college refectory. Specially commisioned by the college they link the two great apostles with St Bede, our patron. St Peter is seen holding the monastery church of St Peter Monkwearmouth where Bede spent his early life, and St Paul is holding the monsastery church of St Paul Jarrow where Bede spent his later monastic life and where he died. A fuller explanation is given by the Rector's article above.
