CUT AND DRY DOLLY. English, Reel. England, Northumberland. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB (Bruce & Stokoe): AABBCCDDEEFFGGHH (Peacock). The title appears in Henry Robson's list of popular Northumbrian song and dance tunes, which he published c. 1800. No one knows definitively what the title refers to, or if it belong to a lost song. One explanation proffered is that it refers to a "kirn-dolly", in agrarian tradition the last bit of grain to be cut which was then dressed as a female.

Printed sources: Peacock (Peacock's Tunes), c. 1805; No. 43, p. 19. Bruce & Stokoe (Northumbrian Minstrelsy), 1882; p. 156.
