Jim Saxe pointed out to me (Thanks JIm) that I made a mistake in my comment 
below. The beginning of Fairport Harbor is also a little different from you 
proposed dance. In Fairport Harbor, the promenade occurs immediately after the 
men's allemande, instead of having a swing there. Also, the neighbor swing is 
preceded by a gypsy.

It''s also very close to Fairport Harbor by Paul Balliet. The only difference 
is 

a few counts of the Bs:
B1: Promenade home
       Ladies chain to partner 
B2: Pass thru across set 
       Partner swing

Hi Luke and all,

This is strongly reminiscent of Gene Hubert's Gang of Four, but  I think yours 
is distinct.

For comparison:

Circle L 3/4
N swing, end facing in promenade position in large oval (gents L shoulder to 
the

A2
Promenade around the oval CCW, going around the ends like a bicycle chain 
(about 

6 steps)
Ladies turn back to swing the new gent behind
B1    
All circle L in large oval
Forward and back (make sure you're across from P by the end)
B2
(new) Ladies allemande R 1+1/2
