|f_annotation='''TWEEDSIDE.''' AKA – "[[Kilrush Air]]" (Irish), "Tweed Side." Scottish, English; Air (3/4 time). England, Northumberland. G Major (Geoghegean, Mulhollan, Neil): D Major (Livingston): A Major (O’Farrell). Standard tuning (fiddle). One part (Neil): AB (Mulhollan): AABB (Geoghegan, Livingston, O’Farrell). Tweedside refers to the River Tweed which rises at Hart Fell near a steep-sided valley called the 'Devil's Beeftub' and which, for much of its length, marks the border between England and Scotland. The tune, sometimes erroneously credited to James Oswald (it does appear in his '''Caledonian Pocket Companion''' of 1760) was an extremely popular vehicle for airs in ballad operas beginning with Allan Ramsay's '''The Gentle Shepherd''' (1725). It was also employed, to name just a few early works, for songs in John Gay’s '''Polly''' (1729), Henry Lintot’s '''The Footman''' (1732), Henry Ward’s '''Happy Lovers''' (1736), Thomas Gataker’s '''The Jealous Clown, or the Lucky Mistake''' (1730), and two works by Scriblerus Secundus, the '''Genuine Grub-Street Opera''' (1731) and '''The Welsh Opera, or the Grey Mare the Better Horse''' (1731). Its popularity continued through the latter part of the 18th century.
