ST. KATHERINE’S. English, Country Dance Tune (cut time). G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AA’B. Early in the 18th century "St. Katherine's" was printed (along with directions for a country dance) in John Walsh's Compleat Country Dancing Master (London, 1718, and subsequent editions of 1731 and 1754), and in John and William Neal’s Choice Collection of Country Dances (Dublin, 1726).
St. Katherine’s was a district of London which took its name from St. Katherine’s by the Tower, a hospital and church built in the 12th century near the Tower of London. The alchemist, Raymond Lully, lived in St. Katherine’s hospital, employed by Edward III in the Tower to discover the secret of transmutation. A hundred houses in the precinct of the hospital were destroyed by fire in 1672, and another 30 in a fire as a result of the great storm in 1734. By the early 19th century the area was a crowded slum, until it was renewed with the building of St. Katherine’s Docks, begun in 1827.
