Overview

Men from Shoreham's Rowing Club demolish their old premises and build a new clubhouse, which we see being officially opened, followed by the club's summer regatta on Shoreham beach. We also see a man dressed as King Charles II riding through the streets and then we're watching Shoreham's team on the TV quiz, 'Beat Your Neighbour'. The film ends with a unique look at how the Shoreham Herald is produced and printed before winter returns.
