Thanks Mike. The singer was Jacquey Gabriel. Here's what you wrote about her:

   Jacquey Gabriel, who was then living in Winchcombe, sang frequently in local folkclubs and was an extremely accomplished performer. Like Bill Dore, I only met her the once - thanks to Gwilym Davies - but remember how much I enjoyed hearing her sing. Originally from Suffolk, she had learnt a number of songs from her father who used to sing in the pubs around Bury St Edmunds. One such item was this splendidly complete - and extremely rare - version of the ballad Giles Collins.

Do you happen to know who her father was? Also, at this late date, the possibility exists that this was fashioned after a version heard at a folk club. What do you think? It's certainly from the Hampshire tradition.
