- [Virtual Buxton Day of Dance 2020 - Ripley Green Garters](https://chapelmorris.org/vbdod-ripleygg/):   A bit about Ripley Green Garters Ripley Green Garters are a women’s North West Morris side celebrating 36 years together. We hail from the east coast of Derbyshire (Derbyshire is widely known as “an island of culture in a sea of barbarism”). Our ages range from 28 to 70+ and energy used is in direct proportion to years. Thus, you’re more likely to catch an alluring glimpse of garter on black stockings on a more mature member. We enjoy both traditional and revival NW Morris, using implements that include mill bobbins, slings, sticks and garlands (even umbrellas, if pushed!)…
- [Virtual Buxton Day of Dance 2020 - Poynton Jemmers](https://chapelmorris.org/vbdod-jemmers/): The two dances are Poynton Jubilee at Vernon Park in 2017.  Poyton Jubilee was written for the Queen’s Golden Jubilee in 2002. and the second dance is Nine Men’s Morris as the JMO day of dance in 2019.  Taught to us by Severn Guilders – although we have added our interpretation.   A bit about Poynton Jemmers We are one of the oldest, one of the best-known, and (some say) one of the best north-west morris sides in the country. Jemmers were formed in 1975 to revive and perform the traditional women`s morris dances of Cheshire and Lancashire. Many of…

We saw Border Dancing at weekends away and it looked great fun – we wanted to have a go. We live near the Peak District and could not find a local side to join so we decided to start our own. We went for a workshop with the Flagcrackers who taught us 2 dances to get us going – Upton stick and Hey up Joe. We headed back for the hills with…

In February 2019 we amended our constitution to welcome women into membership and adapt our name to Mendip Morris, dropping the ‘Men’ from our title. The Mendip Morris can be identified by their red, gold and blue baldrics (crossed sashes), adorned with the King Alfred’s jewel at the back and the Somerset Wyvern at the front. Black breeches, bell pads and gaily decorated straw hats…

- [Virtual Buxton Day of Dance 2020 - Makeney Morris](https://chapelmorris.org/vbdod-makeney/): A bit about Makeney Morris One dark and stormy night in the winter of 2012 three friends met in a cosy Derbyshire pub for merriment and good beer. The flagstone floors were warmed by the open fire and the smell of food and an obscenely large selection of real ales tantalised their nostrils. As the icy winds whistled outside their thoughts turned to lazy summer days with idyllic scenes involving ice cream and festivals and disturbing the peace with the clash of sticks and the jingle of bells. In a moment that will go down in history (well ours at…

Over 40 years later Harthill Morris still dance, sing and make merry throughout the local area of South Yorkshire, North Derbyshire and North Nottinghamshire, up and down the UK, and overseas. In…

- [The Morris Hopping Song](https://chapelmorris.org/the-morris-hopping-song/): Matt Black, former Derbyshire Poet Laureate, wrote the following poem for us to celebrate our 40 years of dancing in 2015. The poem’s inspiration is the rhythm and tune of the Morris Men’s traditional farewell dance, Bonnie Green Garters. Matt visited us on Leap Day 2016 to formally launch the poem and invited us to sing it to him. Unfortunately we’re not singers, but we did our best!  And we got our own back by inviting Matt into the dance.

- [CMM 1977](https://chapelmorris.org/history/cmm-1977/): 1977 April: attended our first Ring Meeting with some trepidation.  We hadn’t far to travel as the meeting was hosted by Manchester Morris Men but were slightly in awe of more established sides.  We analysed every comment overhead about our dancing but were uncertain what to make of  Father Kenneth Loveless’s remark that our Headington was ‘brisk but not too energetic’! June: we were invited to a 17th Century reenactment at Lyme Park where our kit seemed to fit well with the occasion.
