 The Britannia Coconut Dancers, named after a mill not far from Bacup, are unique in the tradition, in that they used sawn bobbins to make a noise, and perform to the accompaniment of a brass ensemble.They are one of the few North West Morris groups that still black up their faces.It is said that the dance found its way to the area through Cornishmen who migrated to work in the Rossendale quarries.
