Yorkshire on Sunday 25 October 2026
Then!
Yorkshire in history:
- 25 October 1417: Without prejudice to Crispin and Crispinian, England celebrates a miracle at the tomb of St John of Beverley during the Battle of Agincourt two years ago
- 25 October 1536: God stands between Henry VIII’s army at Doncaster and a superior force of Catholic rebels from the Pilgrimage of Grace, according to a Tudor chronicler
Proverbially:
Sunday clipt, Sunday shorn,
Better t’ bairn had niver been born.
(Moorman 1916)
