abstract
  • %22Cushie Butterfield%22 is a famous Geordie folk song written in the 19th century by Geordie Ridley, in the style of the music hall popular in the day. It is regarded by many as the second unofficial anthem of Tyneside after Blaydon Races.This now famous local piece pokes fun at one of the many (at the time) whitening-stone sellers. The stone, made of baked clay (or %22yella clay%22) was used to clean and decorate the stone steps leading up to the front door of the many terrace houses in the area (The material, or similar, was in common use throughout the country). Ridley had to leave the area for a while when the song initially caused consternation with the real live stone sellers. It is apparently the last song written by him.
