YORK HORNPIPE [2]. AKA and see "Fanny's Delight (1)." English, Hornpipe (whole time). G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. "York Hornpipe [2]" was entered in the mid-19th century music manuscript of William Winter[1] (1774-1861), a shoemaker and violin player who lived in West Bagborough in Somerset, southwest England. London music publisher John Walsh had published the same tune around 1760 as the country dance "Fanny's Delight (1)." The first two measures are also identical to Elias Howe's "Duncan's Reel (2)" but the tunes differ thereafter.
