well I'm down south, (Dorset and now Brighton) and so I suppose I am particularly keen on the traditions from these areas,

If you're in Brighton then the person you need to talk to is Ian Salter, who has researched and reconstructed a style of playing that he believes to have some relationship with what Paul Roberts has researched (see my earlier link).

Contact me via my (incomplete) web site and I'll put you in contact with him.
