Archive film screening 13

A public screening of archive film of the Canterbury area discovered during research by Tim Jones on amateur filmmaking. The films reveal the changing face of Canterbury and the surrounding area from the 1930s onwards and give an insight into the development of amateur filmmaking. The screenings are interactive in nature, providing an opportunity for the audience to share their knowledge of the local area.

This screening included rare footage taken of Lord Baden-Powell in Canterbury in 1930, steam trains operating at Snowdown Colliery in the 1960s and a new documentary by Tim Jones recording the amateur filmmaking exploits of the Canterbury Archers.
