- Marriages occur most frequently during Shrove or on Shrove Tuesday. Matches are made in this part of the country and a woman must have a dowry in order to marry the majority of the farmers. Stock and goods are not usually given. Nobody here can remember marriages occurring in the houses. A wedding feast takes place and "strawboys" visit the house and the bridal pair have to give them money or drink.
