Sixth form at Ford Castle - 1968. Photo from Mansel Dinnis's Movie & Memorabilia Website. When I went back to the Movie & Memorabilla website, to update Mansel's copy of the photo with the couple of names from the Bygone Bedlington Facebook group, the website was closed down. I emailed Mansel, over two months ago, and I haven't had a reply back -

Photo from ex head boy Mansel Dinnis's collection and names from me. As Kingsley Wake is younger than some of these players I am guessing the photo is from 1961 when Kingsley was in the Lower Sixth. -

Names and the subjects they taught updated. It is now believed that the year this photo was taken was 1965. The son, Thomas Hilton Dawson (Facebook Past Times group), of No 15, Henry (Harry) Dawson, reckons his dad left the school in 1965 but he says he will have a search through his dad's old papers and confirm. -
Photo from Nick Tulip who commented :- This photo was taken prior to a hastily arranged football match against a French school team during a Bedlington Grammar French exchange trip. I would guess around 1967/68 ? Sadly Rocky Stone and Stuart Gordon no longer with us. I think Stuart was Head Boy at the time. I remember Mr Knox was the teacher at the time . -

@Tonyp I saw your comment (on the other topic - New coal mine in Cumberland) and as I am often on the Durham Mining Museum (DMM) site I checked the list of Names of those killed at this colliery and your granda, Joe Curley, is not in the list. I know the DMM is ran by volunteers and although I would expect they have access to the old colliery records it does appear that they also rely on updates from the general public. I don't think anyone who was killed in that industry whilst doing their job should be forgotten. You should get in touch with them to update their records. This is the link to the 'D' index of pits :- http://www.dmm.org.uk/colliery/index_d.htm And this is the link to the DMM Contact Details page :- http://www.dmm.org.uk/misc/contact.htm

The order in which the names are written on the back of this photo are not in the order we thought Left to Right. No 8 has been identified as Dickie Spratt and No 7 as Alan Chirnside so I have reversed the order of the middle row.

Names updated. Posted the photo on the Barrington Facebook group and Michael Chumley Baker says No 2 is Ian Tyler and Alan Dickson & Brian Long say No 6 is one of the Tilmouth twins.
