Some two and a half years ago, Fran Smith undertook to compile a book of hitherto unpublished dances pertaining to the Herefordshire Branch of the RSCDS and its affiliated clubs. This proved to be a somewhat time consuming task, but in spite of many trials and tribulations along the way, Fran’s persistence has paid off and we are fortunate to be able to produce this little collection. There are dances for all grades of Scottish Country dancers from beginners to the more advanced.

Our thanks and congratulations to Fran for her efforts and her success in compiling this booklet in time to help us celebrate the 40th anniversary of the founding of the Herefordshire Branch of the RSCDS.

All of the dances in this book have some connection with RSCDS Herefordshire. Some were devised by members, some for members, or for special occasions. Two of the dances, Jonathan’s Jig and Ross in Bloom appear in a Limited Edition booklet produced by Ross Reel Club but the rest are unpublished even though they may have been around for a while.
