@Nicola Riley in your opening comment you mention Fountains Yard. Fountains Yard was asked about on the Facebook group Bygone Bedlington and as i had never of that yard I posted a comment in the Discussion/History Hollow section of this group and @Canny lass identified where it had been. The entry in - Discussion/History Hollow - is titled :- Fountain(s) Yard - Glebe Row/Road/Bank and was posted in 2019. It's under Page 5 of the History Hollow section.

@Appleby - there is another album under the Gallery/Historic Bedlington section - Netherton/Nedderton old photos 2 - and there a number of school photos for Netherton Colliery & Nedderton Village and the name Appleby has been added on a few of the photos. This is a direct link to that album :-

Welcome to the site @Appleby There are a few postings where the rows and families of netherton Colliery get a mention and the best way to view them is by using the - Search - facility at the top right hand of the 'Discussion' screen. If you enter the word Appleby in the box and enter that youu will get a ling to any comment that has used that word. If you wanted to search for a phrase like Clifton Row then add quotation marks either side of the phrase - "Clifton Row" There have been a few members who were raised in netherton Colliery but I think theren is only one member from the area that still regularily visits and helps the members of this site and that is @Canny lass. In the gallery section there are albums on various subjects and there are some on Netherton & Nedderton. When you select the gallery section from the menu at the top of the page you scroll down to the Historic bedlington section, select that then there are 4 pages of albums. When you select an album you can click on any photo/image within the album and you will see any comments that have been made in respect of image. This is a direct link to one of the albums :-

Hilton Dawson posted a group of photos on the Cambois Facebook group with this comment :- 'My Mam, Sally Dawson (1924-2010) was Sally Renner when she had her first job in teaching at Cambois Primary School from 1946-1952. Mam clearly loved it there, she forever described those years as her ‘best in teaching’ & would often talk very warmly about ‘Cambois’ Two names from Pat Robinson on the Cambois Facebook group :-
