Welcome to the Dead Horse Morris Website

Didn't we have a lovely time the day we went to Banbury ...

Dead Horse is a Morris dancing side from Whitstable in Kent, made up of the Dead Horse Morris Men and the new ladies team the Broomdashers. We perform a regional style of the traditional English Morris dance. You can find out more about us here or see what Morris dancing is all about on our introductory page.

We practice during the winter months and perform in the local Kentish towns and villages in the summer, with some outings further afield. If you're interesting in joining us then please get in touch or come and see us dance at one of our events.

See what we've been up to for the last 26 years by exploring our photo and video galleries, or view what the press has been saying about us.

You can learn the ways of the Dead Horse by studying our dance page that introduces you to our unique way of dancing. Or why not learn a few shanties from our song page to sing along to at one of our stands.

New Stuff

It is with sadness that we have to announce the death of John Rowe, long-time musician with Dead Horse. John had been fighting cancer for some time. John was a good musician and a good friend. Our thoughts are with Marian his wife, and all of his family and friends.

"26 years...Young!"
