I'm intrigued. There are Winders with manuscripts in Wyresdale, just down
the way from Lancaster. Is this a copy of the one I typed up
(http://www.leeds.ac.uk/music/Info/RRTuneBk/Winder/Winder.abc) or a copy
of the Village Music Project's more complete version of the earliest
stuff, or is it a third thing ("_was_ it". Damn. perhaps we'll never know)
