The Brits in that year adopted the Gregorian Calendar; before that, most of their holidays and the solstices weren't being celebrated when they were supposed to be. At the time of the adoption, they pretty much had to push the calendar up by two weeks.

King of England ordered the change...that's funny but not true.

11 days had to be removed from the calendar to align it with Europe and the Gregorian calendar.
