At No11 was mrs Barrass & her son Kieth he moved to Plymouth I believe Mrs Barrasses mum lived with them she died in the late 60's she was100 I think mrs Horsley she must have been born in the 1860's Mrs Barrasses husband was killed at bumasund pit I believe No12 was Bob & Nancy Cox they had 3 Sons Ronald Rob & Paul. Nancy was a Ward her brother was manager of Bedlington Terriers for years Paul died in the 80's at a young age with cancer No13 was Dickie &Marjorie Patterson they had a daughter forgetting her name now 14 Mr & Mrs Coates don't know much about them as they kept themselves to themself but if our football went into there garden they would keep it till one of our parents went banging on there door which always ended up in a row. No15 was a guy called Bill Short he had 1 arm he lost it at the pit he was a nice guy always remember we used to say to him "show us your arm". He did & took he's false teeth out & chase us at the time we were terrified but looking back it was so funny More to follow 

Sorry about my spelling

I actually lived in number 18 millbank place & everybody in the street classed the first 6 houses as millbank road lol funny worldl

Hi canny lass you are right & wrong let me try & explain as Millbank Rd ends Millbank place starts the first 6 houses are on the same street as Millbank Road even though it's actually millbank place hope I'm making sense 

Sorry canny lass didn't mean to offend but actually the entrance to Knox Road is Beatty road & millbank place as I said accept my apologies 

A friend of mine was Called Alan Knox he worked at dhs Bedlington went to grammar school he's sister was called Jacquline Knox also went to the grammar school there father built the houses that's why it was called Knox rd & he picked he's house definitely 1960s not 80s

Not 1980s definitely not true 

Knox road was there in the 1960s 100% sure

I don't know what Knox road has to do with millbank terrace tomorrow I will give you a list off names who lived in the 1960s who lived in millbank place the guy who built Knox road lived there more to follow millbank terrace long way from Knox road
