Description

A compilation reel featuring five short films of life around Swinton. The film begins with a group's walking trip around Tegg's Nose Country Park. In the next scene the group visit Beacon Fell. In 'The Spirit of Worsley Road', members of Worsley Road United Reformed Church watch a magician perform magic tricks. In 'Lancaster Lunacy', we see people take part in various games and races at Lancaster University. The last short film includes scenes of a garden party organised by the 14th Swinton Scouts Parents Association.
