This is also in the English Folk Dance & Song Society "Community Dances Manuals", also as "Circle Waltz". I think that's in an early-1960s volume.

The caller may have been Becky Hill, maybe not. It's for a 32-bar waltz. I'm searching for the title and author. Starts with a ring of couples all facing the center: A1 Balance forward & back, roll away (ladies/robins moving in front from Left to Right), Repeat A2 Repeat twice more B1 As couples, face center connected by usual hands (gents/larks right, ladies/robins left). Balance while turning away back (together), then (letting go) turn symmetrically away to face out and take other hands. Balance away and together, turn symmetrically away to face each other B2 Take the ballroom position, take two waltz steps (step, close, step, close) into circle, then two steps out, then free waltz four waltz steps, ending by unfolding to reform a circle.
