We are a Mixed Morris Side with a wide age range, based in North Devon and performing both Traditional and more recent dances in the
boisterous 'Border' style.
We were founded on 5 June 2008 at The Crown, West Down.
Our first Stand was on 3 July at the Jack Russell, Swimbridge and our first Festival was at Pilton 'Jack in the Green' on Saturday, 19 July.
The 'Border' tradition comes from the Welsh Border counties. We wear raggy jackets in the Devon colours of green, black and white and disguise
our faces with blacking so we will not be recognised by the Authorities (in the olden days, that is!)
We practice during the Winter with occasional outings mainly at weekends. During the Summer, we dance at local venues every Thursday with Festivals and other events at weekends. See our DIARY page for details.
The best time to join us is in the Autumn when we are in Practice.
Our main aim is to have FUN!
