Greensleeves Morris Men’s annual weekend of dance takes place from July 8-10, with guest
clubs from Yorkshire and Nottinghamshire making Chipperfield ring with the sound of bells,
sticks and music.
Friday 8 July at 9.00pm sees the opening ceremony when Greensleeves dance by the tree on
the Common commemorating their former Squire Les Nichols, who lived in Chipperfield.
Saturday 9 July sees the clubs out and about during the day. At 5.00pm there will be
dancing in Chipperfield at the Windmill and Two Brewers.
Sunday 10 July is the big Morris day in Chipperfield, with an open-air service at 10.30am
in the car park, followed by a show by all the Morris sides at about 11am. As in previous
years, the Morris men will be providing tea and biscuits. Following a procession to the
Windmill at 12 noon, the dancing continues into the afternoon.
