Biography

Born to a wealthy family, Enid moved, with her mother and sister, to a cliff-top home in Broadstairs in 1929. It was there that she took up the expensive hobby of 16mm film-making. She filmed family activities, outings and local events as well as scenes recording seaside performers like Uncle Mack’s Minstrels. Her surviving films are now held in the Screen Archive South East collection.
