Unknown source quoted in Mustrad Article 179 by Chris Holderness     (CH B6-1-5b)

The tune known as Rig-a-Jig-Jig, which had no name until it was bestowed upon it by Peter Kennedy, was played by 'Ann Mary Bullimore of . . . Morston, the landlady of the Anchor, who played it on the piano in the room on the side of the pub which served as a dance hall. She described the Long Dance to Peter Kennedy.'

~
From Albert Balding of Morston, 2004      (CH B6-2-1b)
Albert remembered that there was regular music and dancing in the side room at the Anchor when Ann Bullimore ran the pub, and remembers her playing the piano at such events. The Newstead brothers George (fiddle) and Walter (accordion) were regular musicians at music events in the area.
