Unfortunately the quality of this photo of the "Seven Sisters" is poor but you should be able to see the bandstand behind the tree on the extreme left (the seventh sister!). The photo taken from the "hairpin bend†with the Ha'penny Woods on the left and the Free Woods on the right. I believe that sometime in the late 1960's the "Seven Sisters†were cut down and the bandstand demolished. The poem on the post card was written by Gladys Laws who lived in Bedlington and this particular poem was included in a book of her poetry called "Gems of the Heart†published in 1964.
