NEWCASTLE HORNPIPE [2]. AKA and see "Kirkgate Hornpipe (2)." English, Hornpipe. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB (Kershaw): AABB (Gibbons). The tune appears in several musicians' manuscript collections from the first half of the 19th century, from the northern counties of England. For example, it was entered into the copybook collections of Joseph Kershaw, Thomas Sands, and Joshua Gibbons. Kershaw was a fiddle player who lived in the remote area of Slackcote, Saddleworth, North West England, who compiled his manuscript from 1820 onwards, according to Jamie Knowles. Papermaker and musician Joshua Gibbons (1778-1871) lived in the village of Tealby, near Market Rasen, Lincolnshire Wolds, and compiled his manuscript 1823-26; Thomas Sands was also from Lincolnshire and started his manuscript around 1810.
