Dancing for the people of Cheshire and Merseyside since 1960. New dancers always welcome. https://merseymorris.comhttps://bsky.app/profile/merseymorris.bsky.socialhttps://bsky.app/profile/merseymorris.bsky.social/post/3lxukttjxlk2yMersey Morris is unusual in that it has two ceremonial staffs of office from the Morris Ring. These date back to at least the 1950s (and possibly another 15-20yrs before that) and were combined when the Liverpool Morris Men merged with the Wirral Men in 1962 to become the Mersey Morris Men.02 Sep 2025 16:44 +0000at://did:plc:j3b374avnpwp3y66eoat2el5/app.bsky.feed.post/3lxukttjxlk2yhttps://bsky.app/profile/merseymorris.bsky.social/post/3lp2ymz6i7k25Little known fact : Morris dancing is the main purpose of pub gardens.
