Overview

This amateur film tours rural Pinner Village during its celebratory Pinner Week festivities. The fourteenth-century parish church of St. John the Baptist is studied carefully, as are the Tudor buildings that are a prominent feature of the village. As the festival week gets underway, a young Bob Holness is seen judging the children’s fancy dress competition and there are doughnut and spaghetti eating contests.
