The ceremony of 'Beating the Bounds' is conducted on Ascension Day, which is celebrated on the fortieth day after Easter. This custom, which began way back in 1498, involves a procession of people who walk around the city. During this march, they halt by certain trees, fences and walls that denote the boundary of a particular area to vociferate, pray and 'beat the bounds'. The day ends with a celebration with drinks and merry making.
