Scratby Holiday 1949

A home movie of a family holiday at the seaside park in Scratby, on the Norfolk Coast, and at Great Yarmouth, in 1949.

Little is known about this film, or rather, little is known about the family featured or who was behind the camera. A title card tells us the year is 1949, and the location is Scratby in Norfolk, a coastal village 6 miles north of Great Yarmouth. Here, the family spend time at their chalet bungalow "Clifansy" by the beach. Later scenes show Yarmouth - Britannia Pier, the Venetian Waterways, open-air roller skating at Wellington Pier. Later still, a trip on the Norfolk Broads.
