| '''BRISTOL HORNPIPE, THE'''. AKA and see "[[Blacksmith's Hornpipe (2) (The)]]," "[[Slayley Bridge Hornpipe]]." English, Scottish; Hornpipe. England, Northumberland. A Major (Honeyman, Kennedy, Kerr, Raven): G Major (Hall & Stafford). Standard tuning (fiddle). AB (Kerr): AABB. The name Bristol (Glouchestershire) is an Anglo-Saxon name, given as Bricgstow in 1063, 'the meeting place by the bridge.' It was an important Saxon town, having its own mint, and later became England's second port. Eleanor of Brittany, the granddaughter of Henry II, was confined by king John in 1203 at various castles in the area and remained a prisoner for thirty-nine years until her death at Bristol Castle. Queen Elizabeth I visited Bristol in 1574 and remarked that the Church of St. Mary's was the "fairest and goodliest" church in the land. See also the related "Lemmie Brazil's No. 2." Peter Kennedy (1951) gave "Blacksmith's Hornpipe" as an alternate title for the tune, source unknown, although he may have copied it from '''Köhler's Violin Repository''' where it also appears as "[[Blacksmith's Hornpipe (2) (The)]]." . Philip Heath-Coleman [http://www.mustrad.org.uk/articles/waifs.htm] who researched "Bristol Hornpipe" says that it is found in Wales as "[[Smith's Hornpipe]]," a title perhaps related to blacksmithing, although "The Blacksmith's Hornpipe" usually refers to a variant of "[[Fisher's Hornpipe]]." Francis O'Neill prints a version in his '''Dance Music of Ireland''' (1907) as "[[Clover Blossom Hornpipe (The)]]", giving an alternate title of "[[Harlequin Hornpipe]]." Phillip Heath-Coleman also finds a version of this tune as part of Suffolk melodeon player Cecil Pearl's "[[Dick Iris's Hornpipe]]" (where is is paired with "[[Petronella]]"). See also the English variant "[[Lemmie Brazil's No. 2]]" (first strain only, and the strains are reversed).
