Northumbria
editNo reliable evidence for this being a Northumbrian tale - just repeated copied assertions about a "queer old man" in dialect dictionaries, that are clearly copied from the same (presumably) erroneous source..
No actually tale or origin is given for the Northumbrian use in any. No place association. No recorded use in an oral tale.5.198.10.236 (talk) 09:45, 2 November 2018 (UTC)
