I've got a rotten cold, so I'm missing Webber and Fentiman at Herga this evening (sniff, sniff, but at least I saw them at Haddenham on Saturday). Anni (who does a lovely version) recorded it on Together Solo in 1993. The CD note says "The tune was collected in Newcastle by Thomas Doubleday and published in 1821. The words may have been written by him." The track listing on the back of the CD says "Trad".
