Scenes of Carlisle (1901)
A well dressed crowd emerges from an unknown building and engages with the camera.
Overview
It's not possible to identify the building from which this crowd emerges but it's unlikely to be a factory, given their standard of dress. A couple of well-dressed women make a point of filing past the camera to give a cheerful wave. The film was probably commissioned by C. Algie, the Carlisle-based proprietor of Algie's Modern Circus, who worked with related Mitchell & Kenyon exhibitors.
