This film takes a look at the town of Bingley. It was made by Mary Hall, wife of Eric Hall, a well-known local amateur filmmaker from West Yorkshire.
The film begins with a shot of the town sign and goes on to show general views of the High Street, including a variety of shops and architectural features such as a Tudor frontage.
