    Yes, if it helps I am certain of a couple of the identities. (BTW you missed the H from Netherton). Known at this time as Netherton Colliery Workmens Brass Band. First man far left of pic is Geo. Cuthbertson. Baritone/Euphonium. To his left on the rank (with hat tipped back) might be ¿Clarence?Milburn. Baritone/Euph. Youngster is probably Stevie Robertson. Cornet. Bloke in front of side drum looks like Joe Grant. Tenor Horn, though I only knew him as a cornet player so he could be ('face obscured by his music, bloke in specs) next to the tall guy not in uniform

    Please do, there's plenty of people out there who had family in the Bands and will love seeing their "ancestors". I did look about on the other pages and see your labeling method, it's a great idea, if I'd noticed before I uploaded the pics I'd not have needed to include scans of the labels.

    Tommy was "old" then. Probably around sixty, but to a ten year old anyone over 40 was ancient.

    My Nana and Grandad lived at Hirst Terrace North, I spent a lot of time in Dr. Pit park in the 70's and, when old enough to be trusted, explored the river from Furnace Bank to Hartford so our paths probably never crossed on those timelines.

    I remember the Hell of doing the "cross country" run from BHS 79-82. Mr Cunningham was an evil *basket*. From the black bridge to the bank top, down Furnace bank, over the bridge then cut along the river bank to the Spine Road and back over the river, down to a scrapyard(?) and return to the Black bridge, 2 whole loops and if you were spotted cutting any corners you got to go down the bank and back up again. I don't remember ever seeing that bandstand.

    I only remember the rectangular one at Atlee Park. The Picnic field. But that would seem logical.

    Long-shot, but I wonder if Tommy Percy (who was my tutor for cornet) was a relation? Lived at Easton Homes if I remember correctly '76 (ish).

    Why the *heck* did I not learn this at school? I studied (and failed) O-Level history at BHS and NEVER knew that Railway lines were invented there. Blame my teacher J (smelly) Turnock!
