The film opens with a shot of the centre of Harrogate, the obelisk and the busy shopping streets all around.
Two young girls, most likely the Brackenbury girls, walk through a garden with lots of gnomes on display in the flowerbeds. There is even a shot of a small model house for the gnomes.
Title-In a garden gold and gay, all our cares are swept away.
There is a shot taken from a slightly higher level looking down at a woman who is probably Mrs Brackenbury. She is sitting on a bench with her daughters, wiping the younger girl's mouth with a tissue.
There follows a sequence of shots of a convoy of cars driving along a road and a young woman with a crown getting out of one of them. Then there are more shots from around Harrogate, including the hundreds of tulips that are in full bloom in many flower beds and parks. A woman is standing beside a tree and admiring the cherry blossoms and then looking and pointing at the flowerbeds.
