Part of the Wainwright Collection, this film includes footage of the Wainwright family at Mundesley, at a sports day at Sheringham, and at Streete Court and at a school at Shrewsbury. The film opens with members of the Wainwright family and friends in a garden. Everyone poses for the camera. Next, a young man walks past a thatched country house and through a gate. A man and a woman come out of a house into a large garden. There are some women in the street, one of them reading a letter. A boy and his mother sit on a garden swinging chair.

Next, a man walks past a front garden of a house and then to the back garden with the greenhouse. A man salutes the camera. Intertitle - Sheringham 1930-33 A large rowing boat is pulled into the sea using wooden wheels before it is rowed along the coast. In a large garden two men, two women, and three boys play putting on the lawn. Three boys lark about by a river where several large boats pass by. One boy, possibly Richard Wainwright, is on a beach drying himself while looking into the camera. At a school sports day children have a race standing on flower pots, a 'wheelbarrow' race and a three-legged race. The parents are served seated at tables. Two women and a man wander off and cross a small stone bridge crossing a river. A plane is shown coming in to the land and taking off. Out at sea there are many rowing and sailing boats. Intertitle - Streete Court 1931 A steam engine (LMS 1027) pulls out of a station with a passenger train bound for London. There is a large garden party with people sitting on deckchairs. Servants and boys bring around plates of food. Several cars are parked outside a large house covered in ivy. There is then a cricket match between men and boys. Intertitle - Shrewsbury 1933-34 Schoolboys run out of a school, watched by some older boys and men laughing, one in army uniform. There is more larking about before there is a cross country race. There is a brief shot of a rowing race on the River Severn and then a tug of war. Then there is another boat race along a river with many participating boats and school students, all dressed in white, running alongside the river to keep up with the race until it reaches its finish. There is more racing with large crowds watching. Back at the school, the students walk off across the school yard in single file, with crowds of students and parents. Intertitle - Cornwall 1935 The sea crashes against the rocks of the shore, while further out there is a lighthouse. A boy, possibly Richard Wainwright, and a woman are down by the sea. A man clambers up over a rock as if he has climbed up the cliff and the film comes to an end. From Martin Wainwright's notes: "Frank MacEachran, writer & teacher at Shrewsbury school? Much lauded by the Private Eye founders who he taught and partly a model for Hector in Alan Bennett's The History Boys."
