Poynton Jemmers. A line of eight dancers. They wear calf-length dark blue and white checked dresses with white aprons, red headscarves, red spotted hankies hanging at their waists, and red clogs with bells. They carry hoops - semi-circular canes wrapped in black and white ribbon, with red ribboned handles. They all have their right legs raised.

Ripley Green Garters. A group of dancers going into arm swing in pairs. They wear black and green knee-length skirts, waistcoats with stripes of green, black and gold patterned fabric, and black clogs with bells. They carry garlands - like the hoops in the previous photo but covered in red, orange and yellow flowers.

They have short black trousers with long white socks and black shoes, and wear bell pads on their legs. They have straw hats with flowers on. They carry short sticks.

Wonderful Saturday in Buxton celebrating Chapel-en-le-Frith Morris's 50th birthday at their Day(s) of dance!
