Description

An assortment of holiday scenes. We see a group of people in a variety of situations. On the beach, in ornamental gardens, visiting tourist sights, on boat trips and having picnics. We see a show watched by a lot of spectators where men do comical dives into a pool, and then splash each other from rowing boats. We see a group of people cycling down the road on fun cycles that seat a few people hired from Butlins, they pass the Filey Butlins Holiday Camp. There are scenes from a farmhouse where some women feed hens, and countryside scenes of a Pickfords lorry with a very heavy load driving along the country roads.
