Does anyone know where I can find the story that contains the words

Rowan tree rowan tree let your berries down on me.

I heard it at school some 50+ years ago but have never found it since.

Polegar Bottle.

Sorry, not familiar with the first, but will watch for an answer with interest.

Thanks for the try Luath, the one I am interested in would have been dated for the 1950s & this one has a first edition date of the 1970s, & the piccys were definately a vinegar bottle, not an oast.
