Laa'l Pharick
Tradition
17 March
Also known as: Laa'l Pharick
St Patrick's Day, 17 March. The saint's staff was carried in procession. Staffland was held on that tenure since at least 1231, confirmed by Papal Bull. Another intersection of the Christian calendar with older practice, woven into the land tenure system itself.
