Hi Malcolm?? Did you have a brother called Kieth he went to westridge school & was the first influx that was to become bedlington high school terrible decisions creation that rubbish nothing wrong with westridge plr & guide post secondaries
Hope it’s helpful you can go back every 10 years of the census but I believe you can only look at the records that are 100 years old & later but I’m not 100% sure
Thing is if symptoms went to London now he wouldn’t find any ellagant woman there now just daily mirror readers with khan at the helm lots of good reading in that paper lol 😂
Hi Alan don’t think anyone has gone off track what’s wrong with giving a new member information to there question we are just trying to help about the area where he’s new house is I would be interested never mind
I used to have morning paper round for hollymount in the mid seventies I remember the shop having coffee vending machines in there so it might have been a supplier to factories etc I might be wrong as it was a long time ago
I put a photo on the website it was taken in the late fifties on picnic day my brother grandmother & the Herons who lived in Hollymount it was actually taken outside the the that HPW mention the photo is still there
Dunno Alan but I know an Asian guy had it in the 70’s we would finish school go to the shop & was able to buy 1tab for 3p we would smoke on the back of the Raisbeck bus imagine doing that now 😂 the tab was players No6 happy days
I think it might have something to do with the steelworks because before Millbank place Knox road it would have been direct access to the woods & iron works hence the word mill bank but that’s just an outrageous guess
Your right as my grandma & grandpa moved in there from brand new at Millbank from Hirst terrace unfortunately he was killed at the Dr Pit in April 1949 so spent very little time there shame really
There used to be trees in every garden in Millbank place some had shared trees don’t know why the council cut them down they were all mature & different species
My brother gave your mum a photo of mick your uncle I was good mates with Peter he came to my house when I lived in London I new all your family to be honest
