Back left:- Alan Treloar, Bill Matthews,  ??,  Alan Hart,  Harry Wrightson,  ??. Front row: ??, Jack May, Harry Harding, Bernard Gratton, Maurice Oversby, Don Harrison. Do you know any of the cricketers?

Alan Davies advised the Archive: “Maurice Oversby is presumably the same who later taught at Guisborough County Modern School [now Laurence Jackson] sadly he passed away in 2014″. Geoff Bailey commented: ” Maurice Oversby was my Chemistry teacher at Guisborough County Modern School back in the early 1960’s”. Keith Harding has assisted with names with: “Front row third left with the bat is Harry Harding”.

Guisborough Grammar School (1940)

This might be a bit tricky to see – but it’s a panoramic scan photograph, taken at Guisborough Grammar School in June 1940 – you never know, you might spot someone you know! Geoff Bailey comments: “Thanks to Norman Patton, Owen Rooks, Ray Harrison, Paul Taylor, John Wright, John McLean, Rodney Wood, Geoff Bailey, David Hore and Lee Easom for names to date. However this is not me. I failed the 11+ and went to Guisborough County Modern School not the Grammar School. That is my brother Terry (now deceased) however. Geoff Bailey”
