    It's a man thing. Trust me, I'm a woman!

  2. Whitley Memorial School

    The original school building was destroyed by fire in 1970. The old school building was replaced with garages and houses and the new school is still within the old school grounds.

    Thanks for that little gem, @James! I thought that I'd researched my old school (Nedderton village) well but I never knew that it was once a church school.

    @carly I have checked all the school photos that we have for the Village school, Church Lane and the Whitley Memorial school, Vulcan Place and I would agree with @Canny lass that our best guess would be your great granda went to the Whitley Memorial. The 1897 map that @James has posted showing the other school closest to Coach road and the info from the St. Cuthbert's church history booklet is backed up by info on the East End of Bedlington in a booklet 'Bedlingtonshire Villages History Series - Bedlington' by Stephen B. Martin. The info in that booklet saying it was a 'Private School' built c1850 ran by a Mr Whittle I would think the info from 'carly' rules out the possibility that her great granda would have attended that school. But there again, at my age (21), my logic, according to the wife, is often wrong

    I didn't know you could have a 'senior moment' at the age of 21
