Description

Scenes from the Eglwysbach Show Agricultural & Horticultural Show in North Wales. We see cattle being paraded on the show ground and competitors receiving their prizes and trophies. A group of cub scouts play football on the beach. The family enjoy some time on the promenade outside of Butlin's Pwllheli. They later visit the grave of David Lloyd George. Later, Patricia competes in the York Horse Trials and later can be seen receiving her prize. Harvesting in Dalton (Lancashire), Ashurst's Beacon can be seen in the background of the fields. Later the family gather together and pose infront of the house for the camera and again in the back garden. On the farm an excited lamb runs around a herd of goats. In separate scenes a woman plays with a puppy in the garden. The film ends with sightseeing in London.
