STICKS were clashing in Newton Abbot today (Saturday, September 30) as Grimspound Border Morris took to the town to run a workshop day

The day was as an opportunity to share the tradition of Morris with a wider audience, and enable people to dress up and have a go -and to realise that it's not all 'bells and hankies!'.

Grimspound Border Morris practice in Newton Abbot and were recently awarded funding from the Teignbridge Arts Council. The aim of this is to increase awareness of the old traditions of Border Morris and to carry them on into the next generation.
