Description

Salford Lads' Club boys are seen arriving at London Road Station in Manchester to go to camp in Aberystwyth. They are all seen having dinner in the mess tent, and washing up afterwards. The lads go swimming in the nearby river and are seem queuing up for their pocket money back at camp. There is a coach trip to Devil's Bridge and some waterfalls, and some of the lads watch a farmer shearing a sheep. Another meal is seen, and there is footage of the various races during the sports day and of a visit to the beach. The film ends with the boys packing up on the last day.
