I have been interested in this song for years and have Never learnt it... It was collected from Fred Osman of Bartley in Hampshire by Dr. Gardiner; that being within 5 miles of where I was born..
I do also find it interesting that the girl/woman was on her way to Windsor..!! However, I also wonder if Gardiner heard this Wrong...as the village of WINSOR is Less than a mile or two from where Fred Osman lived!!!??
