Your Editor is a Fool - you're welcome

The Morris Ring was formed in 1934 and currently is an association of some 180 morris, sword and mummers clubs and teams keeping our wonderful traditions alive. Full details of our membership benefits and process can be found on the A guide to Membership page.

You will find all you need to know about our rich history, officers and contacts, member sides, music,  and Ring events within these pages ... and much, much more. Take time to browse our newsletters and announcements, publications and reports.

Morris sides will find what we believe is an invaluable set of resources, information and advice in our For Sides section.

Looking for a morris side near you?  Try our Find a Side page.

If you really want to have a good browse through all the content, see our Site Map!

For sides' news and updates, many more photos and chat, visit our more informal Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/TheMorrisRing.
