View the journey taken by Claude Friese-Greene (a cinematographer) from Land's End to John O'Groats.

In 1924, a cinematographer by the name of Claude Friese-Greene began a trip across the United Kingdom, traveling from Land's End to John O'Groats. Using an experimental colour process, Friese-Greene recorded his adventure. And now, the British Film Institute has put together a tour reliving his expedition. Included, are images and descriptions in the placemark balloons.
