	Yorkshire, the largest county in England, with both heavy industry and a great agricultural and fishing tradition, has much to offer the folk enthusiast. Unlike the other northern counties, its songs were much collected in the first folk revival, notably by [[Frank Kidson]]. It has continued to be collected for songs, in the 1950s by Nigel and Mary Hudleston, and since then by Steve Gardham among others. There is a strong dialect poetry tradition, and in the south west, it has the still vibrant Sheffield [[village carols]]. There are pace eggers and mummers in the west of the county, and it is the home of the English [[longsword]] dance tradition. Traditional dance tunes go back a long way, with important sources such as the 18th century [[Joshua Jackson]] Collection		Yorkshire, the largest county in England, with both heavy industry and a great agricultural and fishing tradition, has much to offer the folk enthusiast.
