Description

We see the garden of a large house in the country. This cuts to a farmer with sheep. The animals are in pens and we see one being marked with dye and then the flock being led along a lane. This cuts to a brief section showing the Wolves football team parading in an open top bus through Wolverhampton (after winning the 1960 FA Cup?). We then see vintage cars on a Wolverhampton street for an event. This is followed by more rural scenes showing cows in a field, a garden and people walking through a heather moor as holiday traffic passes. We then return to Wolverhampton and see establishing shots of a tower block and the exterior of the Retail Market and views of stalls in the outdoor market. Finally we see views of Eastbourne including cliffs and the fishing catch being landed on the beach.
