GUEST,R What are 'segs'?-Testimony of Patience Kershaw (57* d) RE: What are 'segs'? 22 Feb 14


Very interesting.
I didn't know what this word meant either, but then I was born in the Midlands and spent most of my life in the West Country before returning to the Midlands. What chance have I got? ;-)
So,what brought me here?
I too was trying to find out the meaning of this word having heard the Unthanks version of the testimony of Patience Kershaw.
What a fantastic song! So evocative. Even though the song itself is relatively modern, because it is based on a historical source it has an authenticity that brings history to life.
