Thorpeness - Beaching and Boating

A family film full of delights captured in the 1930s of the Catchpole family from Norwich on holiday in Thorpeness on the Suffolk coast. After posing together for a photo portrait, the family have a jolly time larking about on the beach and in the sea, and later punting on the Meare, losing one of the party in the water! Shows fabulous 1930s swimwear and fashions.
