This talk reveals how the people of Sussex celebrated Christmas in the past. Many of the customs of the traditional twelve days of Christmas are detailed, including evergreen decorations, bringing in the Yule log, preparing the Christmas day feast, plus the curious ‘Mummer’s Play’ entertainment. There’s a Christmas tale or two along the way, including a mysterious incident during the great snowstorm of 1881, plus how in 1939, the snow at Burwash was not the usual colour!
