An amateur film by Maurice Brunton of the Corpus Christi procession through the grounds of Holy Name of Mary Roman Catholic church on the corner of The Avenue and Eastbourne Road, in Linthorpe, Middlesbrough in May 1965. The film  opens in a room [quite dark footage] where a girl is getting ready for the procession. She is wearing a white dress with a veil. Outside the church a small group of people are waiting. The procession of girls in white dresses make their way along a footpath. A woman walks with the girls at the head of the parade. They walk up a set of steps into church. Boys in the procession follow on. The film cuts to a view inside the church [dark footage].  Back outside, the girls are lead out of church followed by adults, clergy and choirboys. Three girls dressed in white walk towards the camera. A woman with a small child wearing a white hat walks past the camera. A girl in white costume poses for the camera, which ends the film.
