On the death of their father Joshua, siblings Eli and Nellie Pledge of Colne, Lancashire, in the north of England, inherit the family business, Pledge's Purer Pickles. Their faithful workers include Bert Taylor, Grenville, and myopic Stan Hardman. Transport is provided by Storm the cart-horse. Never far away are second-cousin Lily and her husband Walter. While Nellie works hard to keep the business going, Eli prefers to indulge in the delights of beer, cigarettes, and young women.
