Crook Morris - 30 years of fun dancing and playing.

2011 saw Crook reach this milestone in its illustrious life. To celebrate we hosted a party weekend at our favourite venue The John Ruskin School in Coniston village from 22nd to 24th July. 10 sides from across the country were invited and there were about 200 people.

About Us

Based at Kendal, Cumbria, we dance traditional English morris dances from the Cotswolds and the Welsh Borders.

We practise at Nether Hall in Kirkland, Kendal between 8 and 10pm on Mondays from October to March and we welcome new members, either dancers or musicians. No previous experience is necessary!

Between April and September we dance out at local pubs, generally on Monday evenings about once or twice a month and the occasional day tour, such as the Squire's Tour every September. See our programme for details.
