Whitehaven 1902

A video shot in 1902 in the small harbour town of Whitehaven on cumbrias west coast.
It is unknown who shot the video, though there are 2 "showmen" in the video itself whom seem to be part of the filming crew, or associated with the camera man at the least.
The first part of the video shows many local people, a stall holder who seems to be a grocer and also shows the Anchor Vaults pub, which is still there to this day, some 111 years later.
The second part of the video shows the lower end of the market place where there is now a memorial bandstand.
