Bedlington Bank 1920's.jpg

From Stephen Martin’s booklet on Bedlington – “The old mill at the top of Bedlington Bank was built in 1821. Called Petrie’s mill, it was initially worked by a windmill and later by steam.”

On the stone wall, on the left as you look at the photo, is a plaque showing the wall was built in 1902. This photo of the plaque was taken by @John Fox (foxy) 

The plaque reads :-
