NOTE: This film has a French soundtrack. A tour of Tideswell, Derbyshire, showing its limestone hills, its church and buildings, and the locals who work in the quarry. 'This film describes an upland settlement, Tideswell in the Derbyshire hills. Tideswell is built of local limestone, and many of its inhabitants work in neighbouring stone quarries. A hillside stream supplies power for the mills. Farms are mixed, but there is less arable land than pasture; sheep and cattle thrive on the upland pasture.'
