If you've just been browsing the net and hit this site by accident we hope that when you leave you'll at least have found out a little more about Morris dancing in general - and Taunton Deane Morris Men in particular.

However if you were actually looking for our site (wow!), maybe with a view of taking up Morris dancing as a hobby, we hope you find it interesting and maybe end up joining us.

Taunton Deane is an area of Somerset surrounded by Exmoor, the Quantock Hills and the Blackdown Hills. Every week during the summer months we dance out around this beautiful part of Somerset on our club night (Tuesday), but our first tour of the dancing season takes place on Easter Monday, starting at Vivary Park in Taunton, when we dance around and distribute Simnel Cake to the audience.

"ALTERUM TRAHE TINTINNABULA PORTAT"

• That's our club motto. If you're no good at latin check out "Contacts" and find out what it means.
