DO NOT DISTURB UNTIL 2017! Merrymakers, make merry quietly. Revellers, revel softly. First Footers, please enter in your slippers. See in the New Year for me please, and bid it wait until breakfast, when I shall be ready to greet it. Tummy bug stopped play for me but Happy New Year to Bedders' revellers whereever you may be!

It's the 'sky-lights' and what appears to be a steel frame supporting the roof that confuses me.

The back room at the black bull has a ceiling and a room lay out like that, It also had a snooker table many years ago (looks like the leeks are benched on a snooker table )

This photo posted on Bygone Bedlington - part of the comment with it is :- .....' but the caption says "Bedlington A leekshow". I don't know whether this refers to the pit or it is just a leek show, but the "A" is in capitals so maybe the pit?' The 'A' pit colliery institute, 1024 aerial photo, does not show any glass in the roof, all tiles. Another comment was '..........there was talk that it might be the old scout hut that was along from the Wharton arms' Anyone any idea?
