(in the 15th and 16th centuries) a member of a group engaged in collecting donations for the parish at certain times of the year. Cf. hoggling n. See also hoggener n., hognel n.Groups of hogglers are known to have existed in various parts of England in the 15th and 16th centuries, although they are mentioned especially frequently in records from the south-west. Their precise activities seem to have varied over time and from place to place. Often collecting took place at or around Christmas, and in some instances hogglers may have received donations in return for entertainment or services performed. The practice seems largely to have died out after the Reformation, although quot. 1859 appears to represent a late survival of the word in a slightly different context in the regional English of Pembrokeshire (cf. hoggling n.).
