Girls morris dancing in playground, Thomas Street Girls School, Limehouse, Stepney, London, 1908. A group of girls in traditional costume dance in the school playground. This dance was a ritual folk dance normally performed in rural England by groups of specially chosen and trained men. The dancers wear white clothes and dance with bells fastened to the legs or body. A feeling that the dances have magic power or bring luck persists wherever they are traditionally performed. © The London Archives (City of London)/Heritage Images
