As to where I got it it was popular locally when I was a child, (though I was brought up in Northumberland, more specifically Tynedale,)It was said to be a Durham song in those days (sixties'& Seventies') I'm fairly certain that this is the version that Sheila Armstrong sang at a commemorative concert in Durham Cathedral on the occasion of the 1000th Anniversary of that beautiful building's founding.
