A home movie by Austen McOlvin Laws of a family trip to Beadnall in Northumberland followed by the family playing cricket in the grounds of Otterburn Hall. The film ends with a young girl playing on a swing in the garden of the family home in Fenham, Newcastle. The film opens on two young girls in bathing costumes splashing through puddles on a rocky beach at low tide. The older girl climbs onto one of the rocks. On another part of the beach, the two girls play with the older child filling a bucket with sand. Nearby a woman sits in a deckchair reading. A girl with dark pigtailed hair and wearing a colourful dress walks towards then looks into the lens of the camera. Another girl in a red blazer walks through the dunes, takes off the jacket and sits down in the sand. She begins to dig a hole with her hands. The film cuts to show a family playing a game of cricket in a garden with a high wall. Behind it is a building with high windows. A girl followed by a woman take turns to bat. A young girl kicks a football around the lawn watched over by a woman. More general views show the family playing cricket including shots of young boy with blonde hair. An older woman in a red dress approaches. In a suburban garden, a young girl plays on a swing before climbing, jumping off and getting onto a tricycle where the film ends.
