Anything else that needs to be said

Kesteven Morris was founded by Trevor Mayfield and Ray Warman who had recently moved to Lincolnshire having previously danced with Albion Morris. See the cover of Morris On, Ray danced the Bacca Pipe Jig. Kesteven took part in the First World Folkdance competition in 1985 in Munich and were voted the third best dance team out of the seventy competitors from around the world, winning a prize of $500.00. The team has performed all over Europe and is regularly seen at festivals throughout Britain. Kesteven Men were also the first team to feature in Fiesta magazine!
