  1. @Rachel H can't remember ever having seen any early 20th centuary photos of Netherton Lane on this group or the Bygone Bedlingto Facebook group. There have been a couple of posts where a huse named Kurri Kurri gets mentioned on Netherton Lane but no photo.
  2. 3 names from hazel Krzyzanowskie :-
  3. You could be waiting a long time even though the GE 'should'' show there are a few hundred thousand of them around. I will still be singing and dancing in the rain doo be do do, do be doobe dodo, doo be do do, do be doobe dodo, doo be do do, do be doobe dodo
  4. Bedlington to Morpeth showing Morpeth North Curve route to Pegswood
  5. Good luck Bill - I'm guessing your using eyedrops to treat the glaucoma.
  6. @7RIrF using the info @Cympil obtained from the genealogy site and the old maps I would be speculating that Old Wood Row (and any other wooden rows) was replace by School Row. The oldest map I can find is for 1858 and none of the rows on that map are named. I have added an extract from a 1921 map showing the brick rows that were built where the wooden rows used to be. In Cympils comment on the Barrington topic he notes he got the info from 'here' but that direct link no longer works. this was the direct link :- http://www.fynesg.freeserve.co.uk/Genealogy/The Mining Communities of Victorian Northumberland.htm
  7. @7RIrF - searched this group for "Wood Row" and it gets a mention in a History Hollow topic 'Barrington' started in 2007. This is @Cympil's comment :- And this is a link back to that topic on Barrington that is six pages long :-
  8. @7RIrF The 1896 map doesn't have any names on the rows. The 1920 map has the names but can't see a Wood Row. There is a Blacksmiths Row and a School Row that you have not mentioned from the 1901 census.
  9. @7RIrF don't recall seeing Wood Row on any of the old maps or of anyone mentioning Wood Row in Barrington
  10. No change from me and I will continue to avoid any reports on what what happened in any event. As for watching live debates - I would rather play Words With Friends online
  11. Long shot - @HIGH PIT WILMA & @James recognise anyone in this photo? Don't know where thes eight colliery workers worked after the Choppinton Colliery closed in 1966 but they are said to have worked in the electrical shop at Choppinton Colliery. Photo from Carole Liddle, daughter of George Grand, :-
  12. Alan Keech named by his sister Nancy

  16. @threegee and how would a member, like myself and Canny lass, be able to do a redit to a comment that was posted more tha 10 to 15 mins ago?🤞
  17. @Canny lass - Bob & a Mary Mclean say thankyou. This is the comments that Mar made and Bob's reply :-
  18. Thankyou @Canny lass - I'll pass that on, from you, to Bob/👍
  19. @Canny lass -Bob Turnbull (Bygone Bedlington FB group) has asked if anyone has any memory of the burnt hoose. So far nobody has has replied with any memories. Des it ring a bell with you?
  20. That's what my prediction is based on
  21. @Vic Patterson I see we have two posts on the new rail line - but no updates for 5 months.
  22. Haven't seen any updates posted online for weeks now Vic. I'll see if I can find any updates that are giving the progress = telling the truth. This is a link to the Northumberland County Council Northumberland Line promotion site :- https://www.northumberlandline.uk/
  23. Using your 7 predictions I go for :- 1. I will be avoiding the first 15 minutes of the start of every BBC news broadcast for at least the next 42 days 2. Anthony Charles Lyton Blair will resurface and make Donald John Trump and Nigel Paul Farage joint executives of the Institute for Global Change to ensure the UK is flung into the depths of depression and the UK population will have trouble doing normal day-to-day activities and will sometimes feel as if life isn’t worth living. (However I will still be singing and dancing in the rain doo be do do, do be doobe dodo, doo be do do, do be doobe dodo, doo be do do, do be doobe dodo, .................. ) 3. The congregations of all religions will swell as the UK’s population prays for Angela Rayner to be a convert to the Scottish National Party before the Labour short term government is embarrassed by Lorna Kuenssberg Sunday morning politics show. 4. Richard James Sunley Tice will have no seats in government and will return to making millions from real estate. 5. Rishi Sunak will stay as opposition leader. 6. Donald John Trump will be sentenced to four years. Is the White House the finest building in America or the crown jewel of the prison system (Bill Clinton 1993). 7.By the end of 2024 Sir Kier Rodney Starmer will not have communicated with Joseph Robinette Biden. One out of seven is a win, for me, and 7/7 means I will start my own party ready for the 2028 general election.
