NEW WHITE HART HORNPIPE, THE. English, (Old or Triple) Hornpipe (3/2 time). D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABBC. The melody appears in Walsh's third collection of Lancashire tunes (Lancashire Jiggs, Hornpipes, Joaks, etc.) published around the year 1731. The title "'New' White Hart'" presumably is to both associate and differentiate the tune with Daniel Wright's triple hornpipe "White Hart (The)", published in London c. 1715. 'wikipedia:White_Hart' is the fifth most popular name for an inn or pub in England: there were old White Hart Inns in Somerton, Bath, Aylesbury, Adwalton, and London (High Street), among other places.
