Listen "Lancashire Day"
Episode Synopsis
Here is a 150 word podcast introduction, shaped to your tone and all your rules. No em dash marks. Proper paragraphs.There is a certain kind of pride that lives deep in the bones of Lancashire, the sort that does not care what the mapmakers in London dream up or how many times someone redraws a boundary line. Lancashire Day, celebrated every November twenty seven, brings that pride to the surface. It is a moment when town criers step forward, voices rise in old familiar words, and people across the world lift a glass to the Duke of Lancaster. The whole thing feels older than the stones of Lancaster Castle and somehow just as steady.Today we are taking a walk through the history behind this tradition, from Edward I’s Model Parliament to the stubborn survival of the County Palatine. Along the way we will talk food, land, identity, and the red rose that refuses to wilt. This is Lancashire Day, the way history remembers it, and the way Lancastrians still live it.
