Yorkshire on Sunday 19 July 2026
Then!
Yorkshire in history:
- 19 July 1761: John Wesley speaks at the first love-feast at Birstall
- 19 July 1806: At home with Hull MP and anti-slavery campaigner William Wilberforce at Broomfield House, Clapham Common
- 19 July 1849: As William Clarke’s All-England Eleven begins a match against a Hull 22, the local paper notes the failure of seaports to produce good cricketers
Proverbially:
Sunday clipt, Sunday shorn,
Better t’ bairn had niver been born.
(Moorman 1916)
