River Torridge North Devon England late 1960's old cine film

Cine Film of the river Torridge in North Devon England filmed around Bideford and Appledore I think it dates from 1968/9ish, it also has some footage of the demolition of the Marine Hotel in Instow towards the end.
If you enjoy looking at old cine films, please subscribe to my channel as I have a large collection of films that I am working through and I try to upload at least two new films a week of clips that I think could be of interest to other people.

My Dad David Backway use to work on the boats on the quay in Bideford and now my nephew works for Babcock and Geoffry Cox our elected MP is hardly doing anything to help keep the Appledore ship yard open. Save our ship yards.

Is that old ship The Golden Hine'? As a child I remember being on an outing at Appledore ship yard and watching a restoration of this ship!

Ship is the "Nonsuch" built at Hinks's boatyard in 1969 to mark an anniversary of the Hudson Bay Company; it was sent to Canada and is now in a museum in Winnipeg.
