Eynsham

A village in Oxfordshire and a Cotswold Morris tradition. A Whitsun tradition that had ceased before Sharp collected the tradition in 1908 although he reported dancing still happened - just not as an annual event. He referred to a "scratch" side. The Fool was known as Feathers. Sharp reports that the dance was remarkable for the great beauty of its movements which surprised him
