The two battalions of the Northamptonshire Regiment were much travelled and had received battle honours on two fronts, including the Second Boer War of 1899-1902. Only a small part of that regiment is seen here, marching towards the 17th century All Saints Church, which features in the second part of the film. Northampton's tramlines were opened in 1881 but not electrified until 1904.
