HARRISON,Rev. Robt. MS

The Reverend Robert Harrison was, during the early 19th century, the incumbent of a church at Temple Sowerby some miles to the east of Penrith in north west England. It is thought that his daughter Alice may have contributed to the book.

The book was unearthed by Chris Metherall, investigated by the late Barry Callaghan, restored by subscription in his memory and presented to the Vaughan Williams Memorial Library.

The tunes are available in abc format here at the Village Music Project
