Shakespeare Morris, being guardians of the Bidford-on-Avon tradition, always start at 5.20 with Morning Star, Bidford, and will do many other Bidford dances in the ensuing two hours. But we may also do "foreign" dances from places 20 miles away like Bledington or Upton-on-Severn or even Bampton

Chipping Campden & Ilmington both dance only dances from their local traditions, while Pebworth dance several dances from the Pebworth tradition that they have evolved over the last 25 years.

Is that local enough for you, Les?
