Sun Inn Murders 100 Years "the Whole Story"
@Lorna - Joe hasn't visited this since he posted the above comment.😟 If you don't hear from anyone then I still have the email, containing all the info + photos embedded into a Microsoft Word document, that John Dawson posted on this site, that I sent to Joe and I could forward that email on to you. If you want me to do that then it's better if you send me a personal message, with your email address in it, rather than add your email address into one of these comments that the 'whole world' can see. If you select the white envelope, top right of screen, you will be invited to 'Compose New' message.

- Where is the Welcome to Bedlington sign please?
@Ali Kelly there are 4 'Gateway Features' - one each at the side of a road entering Bedlington from North, South East ans West. The Bedlington Terrier is at the Soth Entrance as you come into Bedlington on the A1068 road. These images should help :- This is a direct link to the entry in page 2 of the' Gallery> Historic Bedlington' for the 'Bedlington Gateway Features'. If you select each photo you will get additional information about that feature :-- Hazlemere Estate What Was It Built On.as I Think My House Ghosts In As I Aee Orbs When Photos Are Tken.
Can't see me ever been persuaded - convinced - given proof etc etc that anything that is called paranormal has got anything to do with so called spooks - ghosts = of or relating to the claimed occurrence of an event or perception without scientific explanation, as psychokinesis, extrasensory perception, or other purportedly supernatural phenomena. Yes unusual thinks occur but that's normal ☺️ - especially when leaving any public house after a long session😱- 1949 Form 3B.jpg
