In particular there was a campaign against celebrating Christmas (or Yule as it was often known in Scotland). At the beginning of 1574 the St Andrews Kirk Session punished a number of people that ‘observed superstitiously the said Yule day’. The kirk session ordered that anyone who ‘abstained from work’ at Christmas or any other holy day ‘except Sunday’ should be prosecuted. 1574 egsr@st-andrews.ac.uk Event 172 09/08/2021 11:00:52 am 1574 Bess Rhodes 358 Sacred Landscapes of Fife TEXT
