A home movie produced by Charles William Carr of a family holiday to Devon.
The film begins with views of boats in a small harbour, possibly Torquay, followed by Dartmoor Ponies wandering around a small village with people petting them, possibly Widecombe-in-the-Moor.
A woman and small boy sit in a set of stocks at The Old Forge near Torquay. A sign above them reads 'Cockington' as they smile and wave at the camera, this is followed by them standing and looking at a large water-wheel.
A woman plays with a budgie beside a metal tea pot. The family with friends on a beach have tea served from a tent. There follows a close up of a man’s face.
Inside a house a woman sits in a chair with a cup of tea, this is followed by a view looking down onto a small harbour from a road busy with pedestrians and cars. The family walk around the well known Devon village of Clovelly. A number of people stand around looking at a pair of wild cat kittens at Paignton Zoo. A change of view follows as a man and woman have a picnic on a park bench and feed seagulls.
The family visit to a garden changes to a submarine heading out to sea from Plymouth Sound. The family visit Buckfast Abbey and the film ends with the boy posing for the camera with a monk.
