The old Edinburgh Tolbooth, "The Heart of Midlothian", was for many years a prison for debtors and criminals. Demolished in 1817, its site is marked in the causeway by a heart-shaped design.

Table rows with a green background denote recordings starting with one of the recommended tunes and the usual number of repetitions for the dance (5). A yellow background means a recording with one of the recommended tunes but a non-standard number of repetitions. Recordings with a red background use a different tune and possibly a non-standard number of repetitions.

Recordings whose titles are in italics are not explicitly linked to this dance but have been identified by the database based on the type, bar count, and recommended tune(s) of the dance.
