S2 19 Another Round In The Falcon Inn
Manage episode 462367906 series 3485950
In this episode of The Parson and the Songmen we join The Reverend Sabine Baring Gould and Freddie Bussell for two songs they collected from Samuel Gilbert, landlord of the Falcon Inn at St Mawgan (or Lanherne in the Cornish language). The two songs could well have origins far to the north, and to finish off Mike provides a theory as to why there may well have been so much footfall through Cornwall from 'up country'.
