Stretched out above the entrance to the Primitive Methodist is a church is a banner announcing the centenary form 1890 to 1990. Inside there are signs of welcome for the Flower Festival. The church is decked out with flowers, and the congregation are sat waiting for the start of the service. A veteran Methodist local preacher stands up at the front to give a speech to mark 100 years of Methodism in Beighton. The congregation stands to sing a hymn. This is followed by a female singer giving a recital accompanied by piano, including 'Where the Bee Sucks', and an arrangement by Elizabeth Poston, with a short break for an organ recital by Alfred Staniforth. This is followed by a piano recital, including the first movement of the Moonlight Sonata, and more pieces on the organ. The singer returns with another song. After the applause the singer and pianist are presented with flowers. At the end the congregation stand talking and slowly make their exit.
