This chart does not include 12 other Cotswold morris set dances which we performed fewer than three times in public in the 95/96 dance season; nor does it take account of many performances of rapper sword dances, or jigs performed by individual side members.
The "Tradition" column is merely a convenient handle, to identify the style in which we perform the dance; many of the above dances are "all our own work". For "Ascott", read "Bristol Morris Men's Ascott style", and so on.
