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.
