Pinner Week


A tour of Pinner Village during its celebratory Pinner Week highlights local landmarks, fun, fancy dress and festivities.

This amateur film tours rural Pinner Village during its celebratory Pinner Week festivities. The fourteenth-century parish church of St. John the Baptist is studied carefully, as are the Tudor buildings that are a prominent feature of the village. As the festival week gets underway, a young Bob Holness is seen judging the children's fancy dress competition and there are doughnut and spaghetti eating contests.
