Description |
People stroll around the grounds of Clitheroe Castle, while children play on the nearby swings and roundabouts. An agricultural show near Blackpool - the Tower is visible in the distance - offers show jumping, a parade of shire horses and a motorcycle display team. Carleton Gala sees a street procession with decorated motorised floats, dancing and a Rose Queen, while visitors enjoy the attractions of the carnival fairground. The reel ends with shots in a local churchyard in spring, with bees buzzing around the crocuses. |
