Description

Haymaking on the Wild family farm in Grimsargh, plus a wedding at Grimsargh Church. There are opening scenes of hay being cut, turned, raked and baled with the help of tractors and machinery. Bales are loaded onto a trailer and taken to a barn. The Wild boys feed treats to a dog, help their mother feed calves and play football in the yard. There are exterior shots of farm buildings and brief snow scenes around the farm. Ends with shots of a wedding (believed to be Philip and Lynn) at Grimsargh Church, with the bride arriving at the church gates and photographs being taken of the wedding party.
