late 50s England – open-air neighbourhood dance

Bit of a mystery here. A video clip of an unprovenanced 1950s daylight neighbourhood dance, somewhere in England, sometime between 1957 and 1960. It is barely 1 minute and a half on the YouTube video (running from 0:05 up to 0:49, and 1:00 to 1:19) but the quality of the film is amazing and really makes you feel you were there. The second part of the YouTube video is composed of the dancing clip from ‘We are the Lambeth Boys‘ dating to 1958. I will be working to sort out the provenance of the first clip.
