GUEST,George Frampton When's Plough Monday 2013? (10) RE: When's Plough Monday 2013? 05 Mar 12

January 7th 2013.

It's always the first Monday after Epiphany (January 6th.) but never Epiphany itself. In 2014, it will be January 13th. If Epiphany falls on a Sunday, that's 'Epiphany Sunday'.

Plough Sunday is the first Sunday after Epiphany but never Epiphany Sunday (or in some cases whenever the vicar and/or PCC decide otherwise - I've known one parish to have theirs on the third Sunday in January for no good reason.)

... that is, unless the Balsham Ploughgang and/or Mepal Molly Men decide differently.

PS What 'secular understanding'?
