About the Folk Song
This famous Yorkshire song is believed to date from the 19th century and is sung in the broad dialect of the West Riding. Its humorous story begins with a walk across Ilkley Moor without a hat and grows into an increasingly unlikely tale about the consequences. The tune is based on the well-known hymn melody Cranbrook, giving it a familiar shape that is easy to sing and remember. It remains one of Yorkshire’s best-loved traditional songs and is still sung with enthusiasm at concerts, sporting events, and community gatherings.
