The Brickhill Family at St Annes


A family will have fun at the seaside whatever the weather, as we see in this lovely colour record from filmmaker Harold Brickhill, and a spot of exercise is a great way to keep warm on a chilly day. Summertime obviously allows for more relaxing activities, though there are always energetic people who like to perform amateur gymnastics on the beach, or dance the conga around the open-air pool.
