Film of machinery in the Rowntree's factory and production line of making sweets.
The opening shot of this film shows various close ups of a mechanical machine used to put a layer of some sticky substance (possibly caramel) onto strips of chocolate, which are thread underneath the machine by a conveyer belt. The machine has a pointed nib, not unlike a cow udder, and from a wide shot we can it has a pneumatic arm that drives it up and down.
The next sequence shows a machine that utilises two moulded rollers to produce a desired shape of chocolate. There is then a shot of the side of a machine; many wheels, cogs and arms are moving rapidly.
