With an eye for the timeless and pictureque, Alec Paull of Colchester filmed these 1930s scenes on his travels by bike around Essex and the Suffolk border. The few cars, bikes and buses appear amongst snow-covered homes and gardens, and leafy country lanes where lambs and ponies graze amongst the spring blossom. Scenes of the topiary at Bridge End Garden, ancient houses at Kersey and Thaxted, and the river through Dedham Vale, 'Constable Country'.
