Oak Apple Day
May 27 @ 11:00 am - 1:00 pm
An ancient ceremony of thanksgiving will take place at All Saints’ Church on Monday, 29 May to commemorate Northampton’s Oak Apple Day. The event celebrates the generosity of King Charles II who donated over 1,000 tons of timber to reconstruct All Saints Church and halved the town’s taxes for seven years following the Great Fire of Northampton.
The ceremony begins with a thanks giving service at All Saints’ Church and military parade followed by The Mayor of Northampton placing a wreath of oak leaves on the statue of Charles II, which stands on the church’s portico.
