    c1952 Top End Council School
    At least at the start of the term :- The 22 boys would have sat and looked at the moon, the stars, the lakes, rivers, flowers, animals and everything else which God had created and they would have understood the world. However the female company would soon have complicated that simple outlook on life those boys had before nature rose to take its course, and initiate the following sequence of lfes emoticons .lol

    Bedlington Council School 1957

    From the album: West End Junior school - Ridge Terrace

    Posted on Facebook, Bygone Bedlington site, by John Bainbridge and he said he would get back to me and name all the pupils but I have never seen a posting from him since then. At the open night of Bedlington Grammar School this year, prior to it's demolition, an ex Council school pupil said she was on this photo - the girl with the bow in her hair. I doubt if I will see Denise Joslin again so I only know that one of the 5 girls with bows in their hair is her - my guess is No 21 is Denise, but it might be No 33.

    Cheers Terry - Margaret Speller had posted both sides of the photo on Bygone Bedlington site and when I saw the name Terry Foote on the back I remembered you had just commented on one of Jane Muckian's Westridge photos but I hadn't realised the photo came from your collection. There was a comment, on the Bygone Bedlington site, by a Colin Sim and it was :- " 10 is Peter Low not George and 20s first name was Ivy". Do you agree with that ? If it's Ok with you I will add your photo to the Gallery Album :- Westridge School - End of term class photos.

    Vic - John Krzyzanowski, Admin on the Facebook Bygone Bedlington site, works at Woodhorn Museum, searched the old news papers and found this story on the damage to the cross in 1938 :-

    Plessey Mill,Hartford.JPG
    This photo was posted on Facebook sixtownships site but with no info or the source of the photo. Had a quick Google search but only info on the farm returned and nothing to match the images of the buildings in the photo. The old ordnance survey maps show a Plessey Hall Farm and a Plessey Mill with the Plessey Mill as '(Dis)', that I would take as disused, on the map published in 1954. Proves nothing but filled in half an hour of me time.
