Thank you so much for the information Netherton isn’t far from Bedlington perhaps the families knew each other. I believe my grandmother had bedding in the drawers, but China in the top. Now the China it’s still there and the drawers are full of family documents and correspondence from 1906 until 1960 . I am trying to upload it onto my iPad. It is taking me ages as I get so caught up reading stuff that it my progress is dead slow stop. I have all the furniture that belonged to my grandparents apart from their beds. I just love it. And I am sure that your family press was just as beautiful.

Think she just liked china . I have about twenty teapots ,various tea services amazing ribbon plates and loads of jugs all in a piece of her furniture , which I think is called a PRESS. My grandparents were married in 1906 and my grandad worked at the dr pit . Their home in shiney row was typical of the time filled with ornaments, or dust collectors as my mam called them .

My uncle Bill of 34 Shiney Row Bedlington was a school child during the First World War and each child at his school was given a first aid kit in case another zeppelin was dropped on Bedlington

Seeing as ab n interest was shown in the Bedlington terrier teapot I thought that I would share another of my grandmother’s teapots with you . i

Just looking through some family stuff and thought I would share it with other members

Thank you so much for the information .

Before James and Annie Clark lived in Shiney row the lived in puddlers lane . Thought that people who liked paper documents might want to look at it .

Property in Vulcan place

I believe that this is the blacksmiths that James Clark worked in, in Bedlington, then he worked at the dr pit as a blacksmith . Can anyone identify the building.? I searched around Bedlington and found a building in Vulcan place.

Thanks for sending me the link to the Historic Bedlington album. All the photos I have are linked to my grandparents who lived at 34 Shiney Row. I have all of their documents regarding insurance from when they lived at the hall in Bedlington 1906. Thankfully I have their furniture , China and loads of personal items. A whole social history from 1906 until the 1960. I think that I might sort it out into a topic about them.

maybe it Bertha Burns husband who was taken prisoner of war by the Japanese not her son
