Les Badcock led out the Mr Hemmings Traditional Abingdon Morris Dancers on their day of dance today. This is always held on a nearest Saturday to the birthday of former Abingdon Morris dancing legend Tom Hemmings who kept the Abingdon Tradition alive in the mid 19th century.

Teams included Summertown Morris, a women’s side from Oxford.

Ashnah, American Tribal Style Belly Dancers from Abingdon on Thames.

Morris Dancers from Adderbury Village, just south of Banbury;

Borderline from Arborfield, south of Reading,

and Windsor Morris – a female side dancing in the very bouncy style of the nineteenth century Cotswold villages of Badby and Brackley.
Near the Market Place were also members of the Britain Stronger In Europe campaign. There could well be a lot of In Out In Out campaigning in the weeks to come.
