This film is about Heath Common Fair, Wakefield, and includes extensive footage of the fairground rides and games and which have been set up for this busy day. The film begins with long shots of the Heath, AND the car park begins to fill up with cars including, Ford Capris, VW Campers, Morris Minors and Minis.

There are brightly coloured swing boats, donkey rides, and casino games including many slot machines and a roulette wheel. Crowds of people bustle around the Fair, and here the film provides great examples of 1970s everyday fashion.
