Thomas Sands Ms book is in private ownership but a photographic copy on tranparencies has been made by the Village Music Project


The book is 11 1/2" wide and 9" tall. It is dated March 12th 1810. In sideways script is the word 'Rye Gaite' - possibly meaning Ryegate. The book is assumed to originate from Lincolnshire but this is yet to be confirmed.

I contains 270 tunes. The 'TS' numbers are the Village Music Project index numbers allocated to the tune.

The first seven tunes are bound in seperately.
