Very interesting photos. I was a member of Monkseaton Morrismen (who were the host team for Folkmoot) at that time and can just see my head in one of the shots in the Halls of Residence canteen at Newcastle Polytechnic College along with a couple of other Monkseaton dancers.

There are one or two faces recognisable to me in the crowd.

Other shots include teams (cannot remember which teams) dancing outside South Shields Town Hall and another at Panama Dip is a very young Clann na Gael Irish dance team from Newcastle.

One picture may be of a team from Berea in Kentucky but cannot be sure. Berea certainly came to Folkmoot at some time with Dr Clinton Border who took the name and launched Folkmoot USA which is still running today.
