NEXT APPEARANCE: Friday 26th to Sunday 28th June weekend with Queens Oak and Rose and Castle in Towcester.

HEADLINES Last Update 26^th June 2026.
Derek Bacon the man who did so much to make the team of the 1980's and 90's what it was died on the 21st of May at the age of 94. The news came via Mo Doonan who was visiting Meg in hospital. I will get round to updating the roll of honour later.

The foreign tours with Hanover Dansdeel update pages are still to come. Anyone got photos of the visits from Greenwich Morris and Half Moon rapper; or even the trip to France in the 1980's? Must ask Aileen Martin when we see her next.

This site was created back in the 1990's as the online presence of Wakefield Morris. For much of the first thirty years the editor was an active dancer and when advancing age and receding energy put an end to dancing, the web site continued as a history. The contacts are still be updated but day to day matters and developing repertoire are no longer be covered. But fear not, from the dusty back room video tapes (younger readers ask your parents) have been recovered and converted to modern DVD format. Details of the "tapes" are now on the "Galleries" page and details of how copies may be obtained. As of 2019 this content is now available in MP4 format and links on the repertoire pages will take you to YouTube videos of individual dances.
In 2016 I finally completed the sometimes salacious potted biographies that form the "Roll of Honour" of all those who danced with the team in the first 30 years. Still some blanks to fill and always open to updates, the editor is always happy to hear from members or acquaintances.
