Reminds me a bit of The Mountain Road.

This one is already on the board as "Goodbye To Ireland"/"Austin Tierney's" (http://thesession.org/tunes/display.php/4855). See the discussion on the Music of Sligo entry.

Great tune. I particularly like the second B part Peter plays when he's not playing it with Fred -- if you've got the Trip to Sligo book, they do a pretty good job of writing it out, calling it "Maid in the Cherry Tree".
