The Villages of England (Morris Motors)

another travelogue by Morris , all the lovely places to visit in England in your new Morris car, lots of footage of England long gone. Another gem from the Morris cine dept.

My God England was a beautiful country, I have been to a number of these villages and most thankfully are still lovely. Interesting that Morris themselves describe their own car as modest, so traditionally English, I fear we are becoming a less tasteful and brasher nation?

"..... And did those feet in ancient time
walk upon Englands mountains green,
and was the holy Lamb of God,
On Englands pleasant pastures seen...."

Lovely places. With a Morris sedan in each village.

Thank you, the Countryside hasn't changed a great deal, but the towns and villages have .

Interesting lovely film notice how the CATERING has been replaced with the horrible word HOSPITALITY giving the impression everything is free

[@royyoung3104]

Really enjoy these old films.
Thanks so much for posting.👍
As a small matter of interest ,have you any idea what year this was produced?

[@jackflashvintagemotoring7586]

Thank you, as long as you enjoy them I'll keep posting them

JUDGING BY THE CARS, I'D GUESS AT 1937

[@BrassLock]

First they point out the Whipping Post . . . Next expectation was to locate the Gallows, Courts and Jails of subsequent villages. Totally lost me there. Morris Garages had no clue as to how they could showcase their product compared to Austin's recently uploaded English Countryside film showing their complete 1930's fleet.

[@jackflashvintagemotoring7586]

Not much about the cars

[@walterbrenner7359]

Very lovely Film, but nobody, or only a few thausend buyers bougt british own cars. England had so many car faktorys, and today? ? Butter the country side is the best in the World.
