Compare key and metre first
The scores titled The Battle of Aughrim do not share a single opening key or metre. One version opens with one sharp, marked G major, in 2/4; another opens with two sharps, marked D major, in 4/4. Those differences affect range, fingering, bowing or breathing, and the basic feel of the tune, so check the opening signature before deciding between versions.
What the attribution does and does not tell you
The listed scores are credited to 'Misc Traditional' and placed in the folk genre, with no named composer. That attribution identifies the kind of credit given to the music here, but it does not by itself establish a date, author, regional origin or programme. Treat the battle title as the name of the piece rather than as proof that the notation narrates the battle.
The separate title After the Battle of Aughrim
After the Battle of Aughrim appears as a distinct score title in the same listing. Its opening is marked with two sharps and 2/4 time, while the scores titled The Battle of Aughrim open in G major and 2/4 or D major and 4/4. The available information does not explain whether the 'After' title is a continuation, a variant or a different tune, so compare the notation itself.
Check the score before choosing
The available information does not identify instrumentation, arrangement details or difficulty. Check the score you are considering for clef, range, accidentals and any arrangement notes, then compare those features with the key and metre differences already visible. This is more reliable than choosing by title alone.
