The evening will end up at one of the Grimsby Morris Men’s favourite haunts, The Salutation Inn at Nettleton, for a different kind of pump.

The Morris Men will be dancing at each of the stops.

They are also looking for new members to join them.

“Morris Dancing is a very enjoyable and sociable hobby,” said Trevor Jones from Grimsby Morris Men.

“It helps to keep you fit and helps to keep alive one of England’s oldest traditions.
