Where did all the years go?

A bit late but Happy Birthday CL, I hope you had a good day.

There's information on the colliery chapel website relating to a chapel in that area but not sure if it is the same chapel shown on your map. http://www.bedlingtoncollierymethodist.co.uk/about-us.html

There was a Methodist Chapel in that area going back over the years, but I don't know if it is active anymore. Possibly the colliery Chapel took over as that is/was a Methodist Chapel.

Happy New Year to everyone.

Good to see your back Brian I was wondering were you had gone, Have a great Christmas and all the best for the New Year.

Don't remember a door there because the dart board was on that wall.

Alan you need to put more tables in the café area😄 only joking, you have done a splendid job thank you.

Spoke to an old friend of mine on the phone today he has assured me that the only door in the table tennis room was the door at the back which led onto the grass area. As you approached the stage on the left hand side the stairs that led to the stage were up against that wall. Cl could be right about the storage cupboard but I have also been informed that there was a storage cupboard after the dark room just before you entered the café area. The door into the big hall was in the café area. If you entered the café and turned immediately right there was a door on that wall that took you into the big hall.

It could have been an emergency exit but I still don't remember a door in the table tennis room going onto the stage but I could be wrong.

Don't remember a door in that room that went to the stage. There was a door at the back of the room that went out to the grass area behind the YM. The stage was further forward than it is in Alans drawing as there was two changing rooms at the back of the stage, one to the left hand side of the stage and one to the right.

Just had a thought, I am sure there was a ladies cloak room in the room before Derick Ruddys office. I remember the lasses leaving their coats in a room near that office. CL was there a cloak room next to the ladies loos?
