Description |
Views of front garden on a windy autumnal day then dogs in the kitchen followed by Christmas - presents by the tree and adults toasting each others' health. A party with men in black tie dancing with glamourously dressed ladies followed by a dog playing with a toy balloon. A group of people including a disabled man sit for the camera followed by views of Park House gardens and exteriors. Point-to-point horse racing with large crowds watching, then over to Oulton Park for several classes of motor races. Brief shot of three invalid tricycles with a man on crutches before they all are driven away. The film ends with views of Lincoln's castle and cathedral followed by three men in a field with a tractor with a hedge cutting attachment. |
