Ride a cock horse to Banbury Cross to see a fine lady ride on a white horse with rings on her fingers and bells on her toes she shall have music wherever she goes. People in Costumes. Sent from Banbury to Yorkshire. KG5 1d Ride a cock horse to Banbury Cross is a nursery rhyme connected with the English town Banbury. The cross of the title was destroyed by Puritans in 1602 but was replaced in 1858. An unproven legend holds that the "fine lady" was Lady Godiva. Another suggestion links her with the wealthy Fiennes (pronounced 'fines') family that had married into the Saye family of nearby Broughton Castle; the lady may have arrived in Banbury by stagecoach and completed the 3-mile journey to the castle on one of the castle's superior horses. The "cock horse" is usually identified as a hobby-horse of course it may have been a stallion. Published by R. Stetens Stationer Banbury
