Dornoch Links
Another abc transcription from my old copy of Kerr's Caledonian.
Scottish. For want of anything closer, I've submitted it as a polka - but strictly speaking, it is a quickstep.
It takes its name from a golf course on the NE coast of Scotland:

Somewhat surprisingly, golf has been played at Dornoch since 1619, though I don't think the tune is as old as that!
Q. Has anyone heard the tune, asked for the title, then written down: "Door Knock Lynx"?
Q. Are there any other tunes named after golf courses?
