Chigley - Season 1 - Eps 5: The Garden Wall
Mr Crockett delivers a lawnmower to Winkstead Hall, having just rebuilt the engine, and "sharpened her up". Lord Belborough starts the mower, which was still in gear, and it runs off and demolishes the garden wall and door. Lord Belborough phones Mr Clutterbuck the builder and asks him if he can rebuild the wall before the weekend, but Mr Clutterbuck is still awaiting delivery of a load of bricks, which are stuck at Treddles Wharf. Lord Belborough and Brackett steam of to the wharf in Bessie and collect the bricks. Bricklayers Cyril and Horrace are then able to rebuild the wall, while Chippy Minton and Nibbs make a new door. Mr Crockett repairs the mower, "using several completely new parts" and everything is ready in time for the six o'clock dance.

Synopsis
Chigley is the third and final stop-motion children's television series in Gordon Murray's Trumptonshire sequence. Production details are identical to Camberwick Green. As in Camberwick Green and Trumpton, the action centres around a small community, in this case the fictitious village or hamlet of Chigley, near Camberwick Green in Trumptonshire. Chigley is more of an industrial area, and according to Gordon Murray, the three communities are at the corners of an equilateral triangle. A digitally restored version of the series from the rediscovered original film masters emerged in 2012.
