A film which was made to record a local show. It starts with a shot of a horse-drawn fire engine,seen outside the Glossop Police Headquarters on Ellison Street Glossop, where it is inspected; view of a scout group on parade; and a shot of a street scene with a group of people who approach the camera and then enter a building on the left. Includes views of show activities and audiences - cricket, bowling, decorated wagon procession, and prize horses. Ends with a sequence of a row of shops - butcher, grocer, cycle shop.

This film, along with thousands of others from across the country, can also be viewed online as part of BFI: Britain on Film - player.bfi.org.uk/britain-on-film/
