@Sean Arkless - I had a search on the Facebook 'Public Group' - Morpeth History Matters and used the search facility to look for posting containing the words 'Bertha Burns' 

They may not be of any help to you but these are the images that my search returned :-

 

@Alan Edgar (Eggy1948)  Wow, thank you so much Alan.  Some great photos and the newspaper article is fascinating.  I really appreciate you looking .. and sharing.

CheersSean

HI Alan

Thanks for your message.  Yes I thought it might be the case.  I knew it would be a long shot but perhaps worth a try.

Cheers

My Mum was cook there for some time in the sixties, her name was Doreen.

Hi Orloff

Do you happen to have any photos of the people who worked in the tea rooms?  It was run by my father's Uncle and Auntie (Henry Burns and Ethel Arkless) and I'm trying to find photos of them, particularly Ethel .. for my family tree.

Many thanks

My mother (Jean White) worked as a waitress there for many years.

An aunt & uncle used to take me there sometimes before going to the pictures.

I used to also be treated to great slabs of cooking chocolate, brought home by my mother. Fine for the first couple of bites. Then you felt as sick

as a dog.
