I logged the 800^th Morris Web site in March 2007! Whether there are that many still active is another question. Maybe 80-90% of all Morris Dancers can now be contacted with the aid of a few of clicks of your mouse button or an email! This site is compiled by John Maher aided and abetted by Bristol Morris Horse (who insisted on moving to the MMD stables). Many thanks to those that help. Keep Morris Web Information Up-to-date! Contact me (or Doris!) with your morris information or news. In particular PLEASE report any changes/errors for morris side URIs directly to me: .

MORRIS EXTINCTION? Charlie Corcoran's original article, was not the first such recent comment, but was the one which caught the eyes and ears of the media. With around 14,000 morris dancers (boys, girls, women, men, horses and other animals) and 800 sides in the UK the statement looks a little curious. However it does apply to some of the older morris sides - not Bristol MM. Morris dancing might go extinct if global warming kills us all off - another Permian/Jurrasic event - but I think it is still very much alive! As dancers age, then there will always be sides which cease dancing, but I think they will be replaced by people forming new sides. Get your sons and daughters dancing - that's traditional.
I'm very aware that this site has not been properly updated for a year! So this bit of window cleaning is the first step. Horse is grousing about his site, his last shoe change was around 2004. I've been busy, particularly with the (Sidmouth) John Gasson Jig site.
