Summary
Pathe synopsis: A visit to Bruce Castle Museum, run by Tottenham Council, to see a collection of different uniforms. The museum was once a school run by Rowland Hill, the father of the Penny Post, and the exhibition, which includes famous souvenirs and models, reminds us today just how far Her Majesty’s Mail has travelled.
