Yorkshire on Friday 7 March 2025
Then!
Yorkshire in history:
- 7 March 1615: A great thaw begins in York – heavy flooding along the Ouse and Foss, followed by four months drought
- 7 March 1687: Governor John Reresby records a perjurious witch trial at the York assizes, and the absurd tale of the old woman’s guards
Proverbially:
Dean’t o’ Friday buy your ring,
O’ Friday dean’t put t’ spurrins [banns] in;
Dean’t wed o’ Friday. Think on o’ this,
Nowther blue nor green mun match her driss.
(Moorman 1916)
