Today is St. Edmund’s Day
St. Edmund should still be the patron saint of England.
Today is his feast day and in the place of his death, Bury St. Edmunds, they had a mini-festival with a charity market and some other events.
The Bury MP, David Ruffley is quoted in the East Anglian Daily Times as saying. “No one will persuade me that we are not the most gloriously historic county town in England” He also said that the Magna Carta was not about Runnymede in Surrey in 1215, but about Bury, where it originated in 1214.
