Petersfield Local Film 1912-1922
From a royal visit to the hustle and bustle of the annual fair, this is a remarkable record of the moments that brought a busy market town together.
Overview
The portrait survey of the shopfronts of Petersfield that make up the last part of this film is priceless. It is perhaps ironic that in a film that features a royal visit, it is these down-to-earth, everyday scenes that are so special. You can also delve into the hustle and bustle of the Hampshire town's annual Taro fair, with scenes at the horse show a reminder of how vital these animals were to the community. Petersfield is a lucky town to have such a remarkable record of its past.
