Thread Name: What songs are native to Derbyshire?
Subject: RE: What songs are native to Derbyshire?
Theres a building (a barn) in South Wingfield opposite the pub where the rioters were held overnight in chains before being taken to Derby for trial and execution. It is popularly reckoned to be haunted and people have heard strange noises coming out of there at night.

On the wall of The Dog pub in Pentrich there are some contemporary looking woodcut type engravings in frames. And I thought I saw a broadside type execution type ballad. Maybe my memory plays tricks - perhaps someone who lives nearby still, could check it our for me.
