Description |
Views from a moving car on the road to Keswick followed by cattle and sheep in the fields and scenic views of the mountains and lakes. A group of men and their fox hounds in front of the Kirkstile Inn in Loweswater near Cockermouth and sailing boats on a lake. Snowy scenes with children building a snowman and a young boy learning to ski then a group of adults enjoying a game of curling on a frozen pond. In Springtime we have snowdrops in bloom, swans nesting on their eggs and a young boy collecting tadpoles. After a woman feeding her chickens we have beach scenes with 3 women sat in the dunes holding seabird chicks. The film ends with motorcross races from the Whitehaven Motor Club. |
