Thread Name: Folk songs from W Wilts and NE Somerset
Subject: RE: Folk songs from W Wilts and NE Somerset
How close Greggy? I have a number of songs Sharp collected from the Chew Valley area, and a friend of mine sings the Dunkerton Carting Boys (sung to the tune of A Lassie from Lancashire) which was written as part of a fund-raising drive during the mining strike of 1909. I think he knows of one or two songs collected in Bath. I'll ask.
