A charming 1930s geography lesson on dairy farming around the lush pasturelands of Wixenford Farm near Plymouth.

This illuminating window into the working world of a 1930s dairy farm was one of a series of geography films made for classroom teaching purposes. Wixenford Farm near Plymouth, where the film was shot, is now home to a small industrial estate. The thatched workers' cottages and white-washed barns seem a picturesque relic of a bygone era, as do the hand-milked cows and well-fed pigs who wander free range about the farmyard.

The workings of a dairy farm are shown by using Wixenford Farm, near Plympstock, Devon as an example. The cows are shown grazing, being milked and the milk collected by van and taken to Plymouth.
