Thinking about the recent thread about 3 jolly rogues, here song info: Jolly Rogues of Lynn I wondered if anyone had come across any songs about the 3 wise men of Gotham (Butcher, Baker, Candlestick Maker) who went to sea in a sieve among their many exploits. I found an undated ballad on the Bodleian broadsheets site where their military exploits were recorded (defending the village pump) but has anyone heard of any other songs about them?

The only Gotham in the UK is a small village near Long Eaton in Nottinghamshire. Is that the place? It isn't the Gotham City of Batman fame, anyhow.

Cheers!
