'StateBlock' object has no attribute 'is_code_block'
Book 26 credits this dance to the *New Lanark Collection* of Robert Owen. New Lanark was a cotton-processing “model village” on the river Clyde south-east of Glasgow which was essentially owned by Owen, who was a social reformer as well as an entrepreneur and believed in keeping his workers entertained in a wholesome fashion, which apparently included dancing. There is no evidence that Owen himself wrote the dance; he probably underwrote the publication of the dance book.

However, the Combined RSCDS *SCD Books 25-30* state: The source previously given for this dance is *The Collection of Robert Owen* but we have not been able to verify this.

Table rows with a green background denote recordings starting with one of the recommended tunes and the usual number of repetitions for the dance (8). 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.
