Description

A new-born baby is seen with her mother at Woodfield Maternity Home in Oldham in May 1965. The family attend her Christening, and mother and baby are seen at Hartshead Pike near Oldham. The 1965 Carnival Procession marches up Park Road in Oldham. Mother feeds Dartmoor ponies on a family holiday; and is seen at home with her daughter - in the nursery, at bath-time and in a baby-walker. There is a children's Christmas party at home, and a sister is born at Marron Maternity Unit in March 1967. The film ends with her Christening and a family visit to Chester zoo.
