A pre-pedestrianised Chelmsford High Street, and the railway station feature prominently in this "home movie". It provides a snapshot of a typical busy weekday in 1963, showing commuters headed to London by train, and those popping into the Regent Theatre - a space now occupied by Chicago's nightclub.
