Description

A countryside holiday in Wales and scenes in the Newsham Park area of Liverpool. Members of the Jones family are seen in the countryside and beside the coast, including at Bangor Pier. The children play on slides and roundabouts in a playground before there are snow scenes from Christmas 1953, with children sledging on Haverstock Road in Liverpool. Ends with the Jones children visiting Newsham Park and feeding the birds, interspersed with shots of the children with their grandparents on Haverstock Road and the girls scrubbing their front path clean.
