General stuff about Longborough dances
Longborough is an athletic and challenging tradition to perform. No details except those in 'Loveless' below, though of course the Black Book has lots on the various dances, and there are quite a few videos of the dances online - quality varies from excellent (often Westminster Morris) to grim. Even Westminster could be accused of not doing the dance as energetically as it should be danced.
