Practice Day & time: Wednesday at 20 -22.00 hr
Miscellany: We dance mostly Cotswold, but have very catholic tastes in what we do and how we do it. We consider that the enjoyment is the most important thing about what we do - whether this is by those watching or those dancing. A lot of energy is put into our dancing and we have always had a reputation for the vigour that we exhibit dancing, eating or drinking. The dance truly comes alive with White Horse - prowess is noted through out the country.
We dance widely across west and south Wiltshire and into north Dorset. Our members are a divers and eclectic lot ranging from quarry men through the inevitable teachers, valuers, army officers, council officers, retired engineers, surveyors, plumbers, electrical engineers, professional anglers, farmers, printers and many others. We are always keen to welcome new members whether they are dancers or beginners.
A good article about us can be found on www.bbc.co.uk/wiltshire/villages/morris.shtml. This demonstrates the power of our dancing and we are always willing to proivde personal exhibitions or consultations on request or by appointment. Unfortunately we are a shy side and the BBC did not have any pictures of us, so they adorned the article with a whole rag bag of other lesser sides.

There is also a women's side, Pennyroyal Morris, which practices at the same location and time.

Miscellany: We are the only Morris side in South Africa (probably the whole of Africa. We were founded in 1977, the year of the Queen's Silver Jubilee - hence the name. So 2002 is our Silver Jubilee. We will be specially celebrating the two events (HM QEII Golden and JMM Silver Jubilee).
We would be delighted to hear from any side or individuals considering a trip to South Africa, especially during 2002. Keep an eye on our web site for uodated details.
