SUMMARY:Harriet Willes' Ball
DESCRIPTION:Dearest Gentle Reader… You are cordially invited to Harriet Willes’ Ball.\nMiss Harriet Willes invites you to attend an afternoon of her favourite dances\, as documented in her own hand. \nEvent part of Chippenham Folk Festival\, in partnership with Wiltshire and Swindon History Centre.\nNo experience necessary. All dances taught on the day. \nDress up regency style\, as your favourite Jane Austen or Bridgerton character\, or come as you are. \nHarriet Willes was the sister of the vicar of the village of Christian Malford in the 1790s\, and collected tunes and dances in her musical scrapbooks\, now held in the Wiltshire and Swindon History Centre.\nShe probably knew Jane Austen.
