The name of a religious uprising in northern England, 1536, led by Robert Aske. Its purpose was the restoration of the Catholic religion and the reestahlishment of the religious orders in their confiscated abbeys. It was successful at first, but after the arrest and execution of the leaders and four abbots, it was easily suppressed.
