Plough Monday
Plough Monday (the first Monday after Epiphany) was the
traditional day for menfolk to return to work after the hol
idays, although no work was actually done that day!
Dressed in clean white smocks decorated with ribbons, the
men dragged a plough through the village and collected
money, originally for the “plough-light” kept burning in the
church all year. Often, men from several farms would join
together to pull the plough through all their villages. The
merry men sang and danced their way from village to village
to the accompaniment of musicians. In the
evening, each farmer gave a Plough
Monday Supper for his men, with plentiful
\ beef and ale for all.
