Roger de (or of) Coverley (also Sir Roger de Coverley or ...Coverly) is the name of an English country dance and a Scottish country dance (also known as The Haymakers). An early version was published in The Dancing Master, 9th edition (1695). The Virginia Reel is probably related to it. The name refers to a fox, and the dance's steps are reminiscent of a hunted fox going in and out of cover.

Frank Bridge använde melodin 1922 i sin tonsättning Sir Roger de Coverly (A Christmas Dance), medan H. E. Bates kallar en räv för Sir Roger i romanen Love for Lydia. Sir Roger de Coverley var också en karaktär i The Spectator. En engelsk lantjunkare från drottning Annas regeringstid, exemplifierade Sir Roger en gammal lantlig gentlemans värderingar, och porträtterades som älskvärd men en smula löjlig, vilket fick hans Torypolitik att synas harmlös men dum. Han påstods vara sonson till mannen som uppfann dansen. En tyst karaktär benämnd Major —— de Coverly uppträder i Joseph Hellers roman Moment 22. Frånvaron av namnet kan bero på bruket att kalla dansen endast Coverley. (sv)
