This charming, joyous film starts in the late 1940s and ends in 1957. We see members of the Three Bridges Free Church waiting for their transport to Littlehampton. On arrival children and adults spend the day swimming, paddling and sitting in deckchairs eating sandwiches and ice cream. We get a glimpse of the Butlins Park fun fair in the distance. Children enjoy riding pedalos, fairground rides and donkeys - and also exploring the beach and watching the Punch & Judy show.
