Description

A Trinity Sunday procession through the streets of Bolton - the clergy and congregation of St. Peter and Paul's, St. Ethelbert's and St. Mary's take part. There are a large number of procession queens, statues and banners, and groups of schoolchildren. We also see several shots of the "treasured relic" of St. Mary's - a stone cross in the churchyard.
[The preservation of this film was funded by a grant from the National Heritage Memorial Fund.]
