ABOUT TRIGG MORRIS MEN |
|
|
Thank you for taking the time to stop and watch us, as audiences have done since we gave our first public show in July 1971. We enjoy performing and appreciate the interest you show. We must also thank those who make it all possible, such as Publicans, Local Authorities, The Police, and our supporters. Our costume reflects our rural background, and you will note that our green baldricks are decordated with Celtic designs that are found on the Ancient Stone Crosses located around the County. Our name comes from "The Hundred of Trigg", an ancient administrative area of Mid Cornwall, and most of our men live within reasonably easy reach of Bodmin. We perform dances of the "Cotswold" style, and have concentrated on the Traditions, (or Collections), from the villages of Bucknell, Fieldtown, (now Leafield), and Stanton Harcourt, all in Oxfordshire. We hope you notice the difference in the styles! |
