Leeds Castle


Starting with a montage of ornamental wildfowl, including a pair of albino peacocks, we soon see Leeds Castle and its extensive grounds. Large numbers of visitors wander about the castle and its grounds and gardens or sit by the large moat which surrounds the castle. In a courtyard we see children by a small fountain before the film ends with more scenes showing ducks, cranes and peacocks.
