The Legend of Beggar's Bridge is an independent short period drama based on a 400-year old legend. This endearing folktale, passed down by many generations, tells of the poor Tom Ferries and his secret relationship with the local squire's daughter, Agnes Richardson, and reveals how the bridge and the legend came to be. Set in the picturesque North Yorkshire Moors, England, we see the young pair fall in love before a disapproving father, the Spanish Armada and years of separation threaten to ruin their relationship.
