About the former side
Royal Manor Morris were a ladies side from the Island and Royal Manor of Portland in Dorset, England performing traditional Cotswold Morris dance from the villages of Bampton, Ilmington and Eynsham. In addition they performed dances from Lichfield and traditional Dorset Stave dances. Royal Manor managed to celebrate their 20th year but despite national press coverage in the Guardian newspaper in connection with a campaign relating to public entertainment licences the side could not attract sufficient younger members and the bells were hung up at the end of the 2001 season. Some of the remaining fit members moved on to join Frome Valley Morris as they changed from a men's to a mixed side.
