Home movie footage by amateur filmmaker Alan Quinn that records children sledding in the January snow on Spa Well Road in Winlaton Mill, Gateshead. The film opens with the January page of a Scott Bros. calendar hanging from a twig in an icy garden. Icicles hang from a snow covered house roof and from shrubs in the garden.  A bird house stands in the snowy garden. Exterior shots of the filmmaker’s house and steep steps from the street to the house follow. Out in the road, children drag a sledge. A pet dog sits outside a garden gate. Four children in winter hats and clothes make their way down the road with a sledge. Icicles hang from the Golden Lion Inn in Winlaton Mill. A brief shot of snowy trees ends the film.
