They do celebrate the breed @John H Williams - or they used to. There was an annual gathering of anyone with a Bedlington terrier and they walked through the town to a place they could all gather. Don't know if it still happens but I will have a search.. My memory says it maded the TV once but I think that was to do with some 'celebrity' (hate that word) who was doing a tour around Northumberland (and possibly further afield) and they stopped off in Bedlington on the day of the annual bedlington Terrier event. I could be wrong but I thing it was Larry Lamb who played Mick in the Gavin & Stacey show.

Hope that helps

Possible full name for No3 from Maureen Reed. -
Welcome to the group @Thomas Carr Gray. Did you move from the toll cottage to Melrose Avenue like a lot of the families did or did you move further afield? This is a link to the post that @Reedy posted in History Hollow in 2013 - BebsideFurnace 1940 - 1952 :-

@Denice -I see I got the possible schools the McGlen's went to wrong - not Whitley or Westridge but St Bedes. We keep an albm for each of the Bedlington schools under Histric Bedlingto in the gallery section of this group. I have found a c1953 St Bedes class photo, originally thought to be c1949, with Billy McGlen in it. This is a direct link to the St bedes junir and Senior achol album :- The photo is the last one in the album and Bill McGlen gets named in the updates to the photo names.
-
@jimmcglen & @Denice just remembered I had another photo of my grannie and Mrs McGlen. Unfortunately no date or info with the photo but their dress sense suggests they were on the same wavelength :-

Welcome to the group @Denice. Unfortunately I can't add any further info iro the McGlenn family. Although I remember the family name trying to remember anything about the kids I played with around my grannies (Beatty Road) in the 1950's dosen't bring back any memories. I lived at the oval and went to Barrington & bedlington Station schools where the familes from Beatty Road are would have gone to the Whitley Memorial junior school then probably Westridge senior school. Sadly the member, Rigger, of this group who was looking into his family and had a connection wit the McGlen family died in early 2023. If you input the name - McGlenn - into the search box at the top right of the menu screen you shold get all the comment's where the family name was mentioned.
