Does anyone have any information on Morris Dancing, Mumming etc. in The Forest of Dean? As a member of The Forest of Dean Morris Men I would be interested to hear of any reminiscences.
There was an incident on The Plump near Mitcheldean where, in 1884, there was a skirmish between Morris dancing sides from Ruardean and Mitcheldean at the Point Inn. The dancing ground was disputed and a fight erupted which culminated in a dancer being killed. Does anyone know any more about this?
Thanks
