Just found this. I've lived in Skipton most of my life & usually watched the parade. Nowadays the parade comes along Sackville Street & turns right, past Waller Hill (bus station) before entering the High Street. This film appears to show the parade turning LEFT out of Sackville Street, AWAY from the current route. Hm....
