Title: Agfa
Five buses are parked outside The Arches Newcastle University, the sign atop the first bus reads ‘Private Tour’.
A group of well-dressed men and women climb off the bus walking towards a large marquee erected in a field. Around the marquee men and women stand chatting. The group walks through an iron gate towards Wallington Hall passing and older couple who shakes everyone’s hand. Visitors walk around a large pond with statues erected around the edges, three women walk along the driveway away from the hall. Chairs have been set up on the lawns beside the hall.
The group stands beside one of the buses parked in a village, three of them speak with the driver standing in the bus doorway. Some of the visitors pass the ‘County Hotel’ as they make their way back to the bus. A main street and church in said village.
A bus is parked outside ‘The Hadrian’s Hotel’ in Hexham, three of the party come out toward the bus. On-board a man speaks with those seated around him. At a Roman site the group walk around the ruins, possibly as part of a guided tour.
Three women and a man get into a car parked in a village square. Clouds in the sky against the foreground of trees and the chimneys on a house. In the distance the outline of Dunstanburgh Castle.
Near a beach several wooden chalets, on the sand three men and a woman toss a rope ring to each other watched by a dog. A man in a bathing suit comes through the dunes from beach rubbing himself dry with a towel, a women follows behind. Two men stand beside one of the chalets smoking cigarettes, one of them picks the paint of.
