Paul Jennings visits Rickinghall.

The film opens with Jennings at a cross road speculating that he is in Rickinghall Superior and proposes to set out down the hill to Rickinghall Inferior. He walks along the street that is shown in a number of moving long shots. There are features which Jennings draws attention to including; a railway carriage being used as a residence and house names including Pax and The Retreat. There is a close-up shot of Jennings' favourite, This 'll Do. At the end of the street he comes to a church. He asks an elderly local resident, whom he describes as an expert on antiquities, about the origins of Rickinghall Superior and Rickinghall Inferior. The elderly gentleman explains that the higher ground was called Rickinghall Superior and the lower ground Rickinghall Inferior. In the 15th century the boundary was marked by the Swimming Ditch but this is no longer the case. There is a close-up shot of the ditch. the elderly resident recommends that Jennings visit the Parish Church at Rickinghall Superior. This he does, highlighting the flint work, of which there are close-up shots. He also visits the Parish Church at Rickinghall Inferior. This is a round towered Church, which has an octagonal piece added to the top. The film ends with Jennings gazing at the Church.
