Yorkshire on Monday 6 January 2025
Then!
Yorkshire in history:
- 6 January 1565: The bridge over the Ouse at York collapses
- 6 January 1687: Perhaps violating the discriminatory Test Acts, James II replaces Protestant justices of the peace by Catholics in the West Riding
- 6 January 1862: “Flint Jack” of Whitby, an antiquarian forger, demonstrates knapping at a London lecture on the ancient flint implements of Yorkshire
Proverbially:
Munday flitte
Neaver sitte.
(Best 1857)
