Bedlington Council School 1957

By Alan Edgar (Eggy1948)

Posted on Facebook, Bygone Bedlington site, by John Bainbridge and he said he would get back to me and name all the pupils but  I have never seen a posting from him since then.

At the open night of Bedlington Grammar School this year, prior to it's demolition, an ex Council school pupil said she was on this photo - the girl with the bow in her hair. I doubt if I will see Denise Joslin again so I only know that one of the 5 girls with bows in their hair is her - my guess is No 21 is Denise, but it might be No 33.

    No. 30 is Keith Knowles

    No. 29 is Jim Douglas from Melrose Ave at that age.

    No. 28 is Alan Redpath, I believe.

    No's 18 and 19 cannot be those people. They are in a younger year. No. 18 could be Ailsa Grenfell's older sister? 

    No. 4 John Bainbridge may be spelt John Bambridge?

    No. 1 ?? Hart?

    No.7 ?? Smart(Smarty)?

    No. 22 looks like a Fuller?

    I stand to be corrected on the ??? marks.
