Canon Anna Macham, Canon Precentor, supervises choristers during the burning of palm crosses to make ash for Ash Wednesday at Salisbury Cathedral, on February 08, 2024 in Salisbury, England. Probationers, or trainee choristers, from Salisbury Cathedral spent the morning making and eating pancakes at the Canon Precentor’s house, a traditional chorister probationer event during which they learn about Shrove Tuesday and Lent and prepare the ash for Ash Wednesday services by burning palm crosses.
