During the early part of the last century, Ralph Vaughn Williams was travelling the country in search of local folk songs.  He stayed in Stainton during this time as a guest of the Rev Gatty.

Whilst at the Vicarage he was given two songs by John Thomas, which included a Christmas Carol not recorded anywhere else in the country.

So, we have a unique Christmas Carol, from 1907.  See the Carol on its own page
