The Gloucestershire Morris dance at The Folk of Gloucester Wassail 2025

Traditional morris dancers from the Cotswolds The early days The Gloucestershire Morris Men were formed in the early part of last century reviving the Morris traditions that were seen to be fading in the villages of the Cotswolds. The exact year of formation has always been a mystery, however, through recent research the following account vividly depicts those early years. Thanks to the resurgence of interest in traditional dancing caused by the activities of the folk dance and music collectors Cecil Sharp, Percy Granger, Vaughan-Williams and others in the early years of the 20th century, by the mid to late 1920s folk dance was still quite highly regarded by the intelligentsia and it was considered to be a perfectly respectable pastime.
