SHROVE TUESDAY
5 | Page

Pancake Day, or Shrove Tuesday, is the traditional feast day before the start of
Lent on Ash Wednesday. Lent - the 40 days leading up to Easter - was
traditionally a time of fasting and on Shrove Tuesday, Anglo-Saxon Christians
went to confession and were "shriven" (absolved from their sins). A bell would
be rung to call people to confession. This came to be called the Pancake Bell
and is still rung today.

Shrove Tuesday always falls 47 days before Easter Sunday, so the date varies
from year to year and falls between February 3 and March 9. In 2016 Shrove
Tuesday will fall on the 9th February.
Shrove Tuesday was the last opportunity to use up eggs and fats before
embarking on the Lenten fast and pancakes are the perfect way of using up
these ingredients.

A pancake is a thin, flat cake, made of batter and fried in a frying pan. A
traditional English pancake is very thin and is served immediately. Golden
syrup or lemon juice and caster sugar are the usual toppings for pancakes.

The pancake has a very long history and featured in cookery books as far back
as 1439. The tradition of tossing or flipping them is almost as old: "And every
man and maide doe take their turne, and tosse their Pancakes up for feare they
burne." (Pasquil's Palin, 1619).

HISTORY OF HARROW ON THE HILL

Harrow-hill, standing as it were insulated and rising out of a rich vale to a very
considerable eminence, affords a variety of beautiful prospects. The view
towards the East is terminated by the metropolis; to the South by the Surrey
hills; towards the North it is the least extensive, being intercepted by the high
ground about Stanmore and Harrow-weald;The view towards the West and
South-west, which is very extensive and beautiful, may be seen to the greatest
advantage from the church-yard, whence the ground declines precipitately to
Roxeth-common, where the scenery is very pleasing; the distant prospect takes
in Windsor-castle, and a considerable part of the counties of Berks and
Buckingham. On the brow of the hill, as you descend to Sudbury-common, is a
small villa belonging to Thomas Orde, Esq. with a beautiful garden and
shrubbery, which commands nearly the same prospect.
The town is in Harrow-on-the-Hill parish; stands near the London and
Northwestern railway, 1 mile N of the Paddington canal, and 11 miles
WNW of St. Paul's, London; and has a station on the railway with telegraph,
and a post office under London, NW. It was known at Domesday as Herges,
-afterwards as Hareways; and it is supposed to occupy the site of a Roman
military station. It stands on a hill fully 200 feet high, surrounded by an
extensive plain; and commands a magnificent panoramic view over parts of
thirteen counties. ...
It formerly was a market town, and still has a fair on the first Monday of Aug.;
it publishes a monthly newspaper; and it contains a good inn, a church, a
Wesleyan chapel, a famous grammar school, and national schools. The church
was built about the 14th century; retains portions of a previous church, of
Norman character, built by Archbishop Lanfranc; has a western embattled
tower, with lofty spire; was recently repaired and beautified, at a cost of 7,
000; and contains a Norman font of Purbeck marble, and many interesting

brasses and monuments. The grammar school was founded in 1571, by John
Lyon, a yeoman of the parish; has a very small income from endowment, with
four exhibitions and two scholarships at the universities; is free to all boys who
are natives of the parish, and also receives "Foreigners;" is conducted on the
same system as Eton; and has now an attendance of about 500 scholars. Archery
was originally a part of the school training, but ceased to be so in 1771. The
sub-district contains the parishes of Harrow-on-the-Hill and Pinner. Acres, 13,
590. Pop., 7, 374. Houses, 1, 390.

LIST THE OCEANS IN THE WORLD

Historically, there are four named oceans: the Atlantic, Pacific, Indian, and
Arctic. However, most countries - including the United States - now recognize
the Southern (Antarctic) as the fifth ocean. The Pacific, Atlantic,
and Indian are known as the three major oceans. The Southern Ocean is the
'newest' named ocean.
