MISS NIEL OF BARNWIEL'S REEL. Scottish, Reel (cut time). F Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. "Miss Neil of Barnweil's Reel" (note corrected spellings "Neil" and "Barnweil") was composed by Ayrshire fiddler-composer biography:John Hall (1788-1862). Barnweil Hill (153 m or 503 ft) is a prominent location in the parish of Craigie, South Ayrshire, Scotland, and the eighteenth century Barnweil House stands on the north-east slope of the hill. Captain William Neill of Barnweil inherited Swindridgemuir House and estate near Dalry on the condition that he assumed the name 'Smith', thus becoming 'Smith-Neill' of Barnweil and Swinridgemuir. The town of Barnweil no longer exists.
