Overview
A film about an agricultural show at the Eridge Show Ground, near Tunbridge Wells which features crowds of visitors, many of whom have arrived by car, enjoying displays of carriage riding with teams of horses as well as hunters and foxhounds displaying their skills around the circuit. This is followed by a display of motorcycle stunt-riding where the team create a pyramid of riders, chase after runaway motorbikes in the comedy events and jump through hoops of fire.
The Tunbridge Amateur Film Unit produced many high quality amateur dramas as well as factual films covering scenes and events in Tunbridge Wells during the 1950 and 1960s. The group also made films under the name of the Regency Film Unit. The name of the group was changed to the Regency Film Unit when they met in a room of the same name. Their films Round the Town (1950s) and A View of the Wells (ca.1960) offer creative and well-structured portraits of the town of Tunbridge Wells and its residents. Other films record events such as fetes and parades, agricultural shows and firework displays.
