Building of New Solicitor's Office in Sevenoaks
An innovative amateur filmmaker takes such pride in the expansion of the family firm that every stage of the new build is captured.
Amateur film 1930 12 mins Silent
Overview
Lancelot House made many home movies in his lifetime, including dramas starring his future wife, and a documentary about 'The Mad King' Ludwig II of Bavaria. So the move of the family firm, W.H. House & Son, to new purpose built offices on Sevenoaks High Street was the perfect subject. Lance directs his dad from bank to architects, capturing every stage of building a site which still stands today.
