Men and women gather round people sitting on racehorses. The jockeys ride the horses up and down a road. On the roadside many cars and trailers parked up.
Mixed breeds of bulls are in a pen at market. They are taken through in twos into another pen where the auctioneer awaits.
A sign on the side of the road reads 'YFC County Rally'. Another larger sign reads 'Site for 15th Annual County Rally Saturday 6th June 1959'.
There is a sheep shearing competition which takes place, and contestants use electric sheers. A large crowd watch as girls in tennis clothes parade round, each holding a ticket with a number on for the judges. Tractors and a chemical stand with a scarecrow out front demonstrating what protective clothing should be worn.
A sign reads 'tractor handling'. Different people take it in turns to manoeuvre a tractor and trailer. A sign reads 'assembling and dismantling a milking machine'. Another sign 'scarecrow making' with a scarecrow next to it. Various different scarecrows lined up.
There is a shot of a very large stately house followed by another brief shot of Kiplingcotes Races. A young boy stands in a garden amongst daffodils and puppies. A B250 loading sacks. Two men lead two Longwool ewes. End.
