1949..??!!...I went to the Bedlington Village infants School in 1949..aged 5yrs..Paddy o Malley,and Terry Bradley.......

 

@HIGH PIT WILMA - my fault Bill. It was initially thought to be c1949 but back in 2019 No 25, grace Fizgibon, and a few others, reckoned about 1953. I forgot to add an updated photo with the year on.

Photo posted on the Past Times History FB group by @johndawsonjune1955 - names from the Bygone Bedlington FB group members.

Tidying out the photos I have added names to and came across this one but I haven't kept a note of who posted it and on what group. Searched the local Facebook groups I am a member of but can't find it so I am assuming it was from a FB group I am no longer a member of = Bedlington remembered.

Howw,Alan,a few years ago Cath n Me were at thi Lake District,and oot on a run.We came across a Country Event at a big mansion and gardens like Cragside. There were several exibitions stands like the RSPCA etc.

One stand was the Water Board..and among the exhibits was a stall selling Wind Turbines.

 

Wind turbine would be dangerous in wor garden Bill - wor lass would be trying to fix the weshing to the blades to get them dry quicker. 

Can't remember ever having seen a wind turbine in any of the local gardens in and around where we live.

Two  more names, from No 18 Maurice Sparrow via his wife Coral Sparrow, added to the photo.
