Dear Garth,
The major Christian feast day during that period in the 14th century (at
least in England, and I think in western Europe generally) was the feast of
St. Michael, on the 29th. The Sarum and York calendars also had SS Cyprian
and Justina on the 26th and Cosmas and Damian on the 27th. But particular
churches and institutions celebrated their own feasts in the 14th century,
alongside [and sometimes in preference to] the feast days inherited from the
Gregorian and Gelasian calendars. So if you can specify what locale(s)
you're interested in and what religious order(s), various listmembers may be
able to tell you about a number of additional feasts that were celebrated
between those dates.
