GUEST,padgett (at home) Origins: Barnsley Anthem (50) Origins: Barnsley Anthem 15 Apr 05


At Barnsley Easter singaround Marc Dowding and Chris Harvey did a workshop on Harry Boardman

Converstaion came round to the Barnsley Anthem "She's reight dahn in cellar 'oile where much slaights on winders' etc

I said that the only person I'd heard sing this was Dave Burland and that I did not have any evidence to suggest that the song had been current in Yorkshire at any time.

However Barnsley FC last guest was Robin Garside and he claims that the song is indeed from Yorkshire can anyone help with verse/trad sources etc (I know that Roy Palmer has it in one of his books) and I have it somewhere!!
