North Wales, England: The Land of Castles and Waterfalls

An Edwardian excursion along the crenelated coast of North Wales from the walls of Chester to the wilds of Snowdonia.

Take a trip in time and space to Edwardian Britain, and travel along the North Wales coast. Starting in the walled city of Chester you hop on a train to Llandudno, mosey around a few castles, and take a horse-drawn carriage through Snowdonia. Clearly a holiday for the wealthier set, there's something delightfully intimate about the relationship between the camera and travellers that makes you feel part of the trip. An excellent silent travelogue from skilled producers of the early form.
