Description

Several views of a parade which includes soldiers, boy scouts, military bands, old soldiers wearing medals and groups of local dignitaries. We also see a family group (probably Councillor T.R. Wood and family) posing for the camera in a back garden and a man wearing fireman's uniform standing for the camera with a young boy who is also wearing a uniform. One section shows the parade passing Wood's Palace Cinema on Lichfield Street in Bilston (the main attraction is The Golden Bed). We also see crowds standing in the street for the camera.
