Biddenden Dole, Kent: A Traditional Easter Charity Event Dating Back to the 12th Century This photograph captures the essence of a time-honored Easter tradition in the picturesque village of Biddenden, Kent, England. The image portrays the distribution of the Biddenden Dole, a unique custom that has been taking place every Easter Monday since the 12th century. The Biddenden Dole is a charitable event that involves the distribution of bread, cheese, tea, and cakes to the residents of the village. The items are noteworthy for bearing an impression of the famous Siamese twins, Elizabeth and Mary Chulkhurst, who lived in Biddenden between 1100 and 1134. The history of the Biddenden Dole is steeped in intrigue and mystery. Legend has it that the twins, who were joined at the hip, were given the land and the right to provide for the villagers in perpetuity.
