Wells-next-the-sea Coronation Revels

Locals from the seaside town of Wells-Next-The-Sea celebrate the Queen’s coronation in June 1953, a great opportunity for everyone to come together in fancy dress costume and let their hair down. Some black and white, some colour footage, includes Maypole dancing by the schoolchildren of Wells Primary.
