DORNOCH LINKS. Scottish, Pipe March or Quickstep (2/4 time). A Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. Dornoch Links is one of the earliest locations where the game of golf is recorded to have been played, in 1616. Dornoch is about an hour north of Inverness. The tune appeared to Bayard (1981) to be a set of the one he collected as "Hazel Dean." "Fill the Stoup" has a similar harmonic and melodic pattern, but is a different melody.
