Dave Rado | Analysis of Tatties and Herrin (34) | RE: Analysis of Tatties and Herrin | 07 Mar 19 |
The south breakwater of the Harbour of Refuge in Peterhead was constructed between 1892 and 1912; and Queen Victoria died in 1901. Given the reference to the Queen in verse 3, that seems to date the song's origin to the late 1890s. Is that a fair assessment? |
