In Pictures: Morris Men see in May Day dawn

PA News

Hampshire Morris dancers have gathered to mark the May Day dawn.

Members of the Hook Eagle Morris Men performed near the village of Hook, in their first show since January 2020.

Hook Eagle perform in the Border Morris style, originating on the English-Welsh border, which the group say is the oldest form of the dance.
