Widecombe Fair 35/7 Vase

This Widecombe Fair Poem and Folk Song describes the ‘adventures’ of Uncle Tom Cobley and his friends and the fate that befell the poor old grey mare that they borrowed from Tom Pearce. It is said to be based on a true happening and you can visit Tom Cobley’s grave at Spreyton, just north of Dartmoor. Kerry takes us into the heart of the bygone time, as Widecombe Fair unfolds amid a flurry of ribbons and bold red and white stripes, with maypole dancing, sideshows, coconut shy and marquees, while ‘All along, down along, out along, lee’ a motley crew of west country merrymakers ‘ Bill Brewer, Jan Stewer, Peter Gurney, Peter Davy, Dan'l Whiddon, Harry Hawke, Old Uncle Tom Cobley and all’ ride the grey mare.
