Morris Dancing After The Fair At Bampton - a Memory of Bampton.


Sadly the landlord, Robin, died just this year. It was his wish that the traditional music and dancing that follows the Bampton Fair should continue outside his pub after his passing. Although "The Swan" itself was closed we danced outside to honour the landlord's memory and later went inside other bars in the town including "The Quarrymans Rest"  to join in music sessions with visiting Breton musicians. My wife Elizabeth joined in some of the border dancing and loved it.  It was a chilly day but a lot of fun.
