CHURCH HILL [1] (Cnoc an Teampall). Irish, Double Jig (6/8 time). D Major (O'Neill): D Mixolydian (Goodman). Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. Paul de Grae, in his article "O'Neill's Outcries" [1] the jig to be the concluding section of “Allisdrum’s March, Battle of Cnoc na nDos, Laments &c”, in the music manuscript collection of Uilleann piper and Anglican cleric James Goodman, who collected in Munster in the mid-19th century. The four-part piece commemorates the battle of Cnoc na nDos/Knocknanuss (hill of the bushes), fought in 1647 in north County Cork. Goodman notated the programmatic piece from the playing of Kerry piper Tom Kennedy. The jig is said by some to have been spontaneously rendered by Aladair's wife when she was sure that her husband was really dead, although, "in fairness" remarks de Grae, "to the widow, merry or otherwise, another version of the story has it that she danced from pique at not being allowed to keen for her husband before the other women; and another setting of the piece omits the jig altogether, concluding with the laments." The jig is also contained in the mid-19th music manuscript from Sliabh Luachra of D. Curtin (No. 56, p. 22 [2]).
See also the related version "Church Hill (2) (The)." The first strain of the tune may also have been used for the first strain of his "Yellow Wattle (2)" by O'Neill's source for the tune, Timothy Dillon.
