Description This is an amateur film that shows the snow-covered village of Clayton, near Bradford, in the winter of 1947. This winter was one of the worst winters in recent history.
The film opens with pans of the village's roads. They have been partially cleared; however, there are snow banks either side where the pavement would usually be. The film then closes with the snow covered fields in the surrounding countryside.
