HODDOM/HODDAM CASTLE. Scottish, Slow Air (6/8 time). B Flat Major (Carlin): G Major (Gatherer). Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. The melody was composed by Mr. (Charles) Sharpe of Hoddam as a slow air, although the tune is un-attributed in the Gows' Third Collection (1792), in which other tunes are attributed to Sharpe (for more on whom see "Mr. Sharpe's Delight"). Hoddam Castle [1] is in the vicinity of Lockerbie, Dumfriesshire, southwest Scotland. It was sold in 1690 to John Sharpe and remained in the family for several generations.
