MAIDS OF TRAMORE. AKA and see "Eviction (The)." Irish, Double Jig. A Dorian/G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. The first turn (which Breathnach claims is faulty) is the same as that of "Scatter the Mud (2)" and "Noonday Feast (The)." Ryan's/Cole's tune "Eviction (The)" appears to be almost identical with "Maids of Tramore," and compares favorably with the version in Frank Roche's 1912 collection.
