Cheers clanbull - numbers added + your 3 names and a few more from Alan Dickson (Barrington, Barnt' n memories and stuff!! = Facebook group) I thought this was class 3 and therfore c1954 but now believe it is Class 5 and therefore 1957 as my brother, Derek Edgar, left Barrington CP, from Class 6, in 1958.

Alan Edgar (Eggy1948) 1,199 Posted January 16, 2017 Report 12 hours ago, clanbull said: Sorry the girl at number 36 is Ann Lawson. clanbull - posted the photo, with your updates, on facebook group - Bygone bedlington - and Lillian Wilkinson (could be Lillian Shields) added a comment :- '24 Anne Blyth? 25 Brenda Mynott 29 Irene Hutton 36 is Elaine Aisbett 37 is Margaret Scott.16 Edith Robertson.' So what do your reckon for No 36 - Ann Lawson or Elaine Aisbett? Now that Elaine's name is in the mix I think it could be. I was mates with Elaine's younger brother David in the 1960s. There was also an older sister Margaret and they lived at No 1, Waverley Avenue.
clanbull 6 Posted January 16, 2017 Report I am still unsure between numbers 15 & 36. Ann had very blond hair possible the fairest hair I can remember . Also there was a girl called Jean Morris who lived in the pit row by the railway at the station pit. Just cannot pull her face from memory!

clanbull 6 Posted January 17, 2017 Report No definitely Jean Morris lived at Shop Row. Had a older sister who was a fantastic redhead (remember my age easy impressed), but she may not have been at school that day. I am sending these details to Muriel Wilson nee Williams she may be able to help.
clanbull 6 Posted January 19, 2017 Report More names into the melting pot. No 7 Billy Richardson, not Tom. No 13 John Thomas. No 15 definitely Ann Lawson note no e. No16 Margaret Clouds. No 23 Patsy Marshall, not Pat. No 26 Jean Morris a definite. No 43 John Little, possible, not Jefferson? No 37 I should have remembered as her mother was a very good friend of mine, moved to Grange Park. No 11 Kingsley Wake his father owned a butchers shop at the Oval shops. Very good footballer scored 9 goals in one match I seem to remember. That should be the lot. Dragged up a few memories thinking of those.

Cheers clanbull - I knew Kingsley Wake, and the butcher's shop at the Oval. There are quite a few football team photos of online with Kingsley on (late teens & early 20s, not 10 years old like this one), I would never have worked out it was him. My memory has him as ginger, slightly wavy/curly, not straight blonde. When you say No 16 = Margaret Clouds do you mean No 17 that I have as Margaret Douds? I lived in No 5 Coquetdale Place and was 2 years below this lot at Barrington CP - No 10 is my brother, but he is no longer with us. Edited January 19, 2017 by Eggy1948
clanbull 6 Posted January 19, 2017 Report Yes sorry No 17. It was Muriel who gave me this and Kingsley, she lived above the shop at the Oval before moving to Waverley Ave, next door to John Hedley who lived just across from me. Unfortunately Kingsley had a rough time after this period his father took to the bottle and may have even taken his own life!!! Think he had ginger hair, but again memory not that good. Myself I lived at 3 Rosland Park. Cannot remember your brother, unfortunately. It's a small world!
Alan Edgar (Eggy1948) 1,199 Posted January 19, 2017 Report I'll see if I can find a football photo, with Kingsley on, to post in the Bedlington Grammar School Album. Across the field from your house at Roslind Park would be Gordon Harnet & Tony Green that Derek often hung around with. The lads I remember from your street, heading up to Fontburn & Coquetdale, would be George Darling, Jimmy Cummings, Ian Chochrane, & George Frazer. I'll repost the photo when I have updated the names.

The wife must have asked me to do some DIY, 4 years ago, and I have just finished - names updated on a slightly better copy of the photo posted on the Barrington group.
