CUDDIE CLAUDER. AKA and see "Cuddy Claw'd Her." Scottish, English; Jig. England, Northumberland. E Flat Major (Gow): G Major (Bruce & Stokoe, Peacock). Standard tuning. AB. "Old" remarks Gow, in the Sixth Collection (1822), and indeed, it appears in James Oswald's Caledonian Pocket Companion (London, 1760). It is a popular tune for variation sets by Northumbrian pipers, however, it does not appear to be originally a piping tune. John Stokoe cites a music manuscript copybook collection by one John Smith, dated 1752, whom Stokoe believed was a fiddler after examining the notation. Smith was also evidently from Northumberland, as the ms. contained a number of titles associated with Northumberland, including "Cuddy Clauder" (see Monthly chronicle of north-country lore and legend, p. 379 [1]).

"Cuddy Clauder" or "Cuddy Claw'd Her" was also a song, printed in Oswald's Caledonian Pocket Companion, vol. 5 (c. 1755). This stanza was printed in Sir Walter Scott's A Ballad Book :

Jenny lup ower the dyke
Cuddy bade her,
A' the lang winter night
Cuddy claw'd her.
