Hi all, Just came to this site after a few years away How is Bedlington these days? My husband and I spent a week there with friends in Bedlington last October. Many moons ago my father in law was born there-Joe Gray.Came out to Australia when he was three with his parents. He is desceased now. We were going through some old photos that the family sent to their daughter from Bedlington to Australia back from 1930's. One member of the family was just going to burn them! so we rescued them. Even a photo of the Red Lion back then and photos of Doctor Pit mine Cheers for now Val
