Amateur home movie by Dr H. Brenton Porteous of a family holiday visiting Cheddar Gorge, Devon and Cornwall in 1933. Ian Porteous, his mother and another woman stand beneath a shady tree. General views follow around Cheddar Gorge of Cox's Cave, the waterfall and landscaped gardens, and the Cliff Hotel. General views follow around Clovelly in Devon, the secluded bay, fishing boats, the sea rolling onto the beach, the Red Lion Inn, waterwheel, and the harbour wall and tide rolling in. The family clamber on the rocks by the sea, and walk on the harbour wall.  In Cornwall, men load sacks of coal onto a boat from a quayside, possibly in Falmouth. Various travelling shots follow from a boat trip, including footage of a yawl, gunboat and steam cruisers. Ian Porteous plays on a beach and men walk into the sea to surf. Traveling point of view shot through the Cornish countryside, the car mascot visible in frame. Merchant steamers are laid up on the River Fal during the Great Depression.
