It's quite likely that I'll be moving to Swindon later this year. I've been interested in Morris for a while now and I think that joining a side would be a good way to meet people. Does anybody know of a Morris side (men's or mixed), preferably Border, around Swindon?

These two links ought to provide possibilities whilst you are waiting for people who actually know the area.
Morris Ring - http://www.themorrisring.org/ and
Morris Federation http://www.morrisfed.org/.
Quack!

More geographically specific: Wiltshire Folk Arts lists Swindon Morris and several local alternatives.

there is a very good web site called 'sidefinder' which will show teams and their location around swindon. Or, move to south devon instead and join beltane border.

I'd love to. Maybe I should get you to ring my boss and ask him to move our factory down there instead? :-)

Thanks for the link though it looks like I'm out of luck as far as border sides goes. I suppose that nobody on mudcat knows of anybody planning to start a border side around that way?
