As the tune is such a distinctively "dangly" one, it's perhaps apt that the words have a dangly, unfinished quality to them. But I think there is another continuation, beyond J Handle's original additions, by the man Handle himself. I heard him sing it with the Ranters a couple of years back – fairly sure it wasn't the Eddy Charles continuation he sang.

In my old home town of Haltwhistle there's a Lanty's Lonnen. And there was once a bendy brambly track, now built over, that we just called The Lonnen.
