Cecil Sharp added an extra turn into each of the A parts, making the timing very hard.  Playford describes the A1 as The 1. man turn the 2. wo. by the right hand once round, then take the 1. wo. by the left, and all three hands quite round: Sharp interpreted take the 1. wo. by the left as "turn 1W by the left hand" whereas what was intended was simply that 1M take 1W's left hand in his right hand, bringing her into the circle, ready to circle left.  There's not really time for both turns in the music – you can just about make it work with arm turns but it's not really in keeping with the style of other dances.
