Description

At Greenfield House Orphanage's Open day, the children play outside on a rocking horse, swings, a roundabout and a seesaw. Mr Marsden, the Mayor of St Helens, takes photographs of groups of children. Nuns and visitors laugh together. Children look out of the window, whilst others approach the camera and smile.
