Bill Danby tells us (courtesy of his History of Skelton website) about Joe Reed who is the teacher in this photograph (he was headmaster when Stanghow Lane closed in 1961) – ”Joe Reed DFC, who flew with Bomber Command as a navigator in the Second World War and was one of the few who survived. He finished his service as a Squadron Leader and Navigator Instructor.”

North Skelton School the site of learning for the inhabitants of North Skelton (most of whom were involved with the ironstone mine) was used until the 1960s. It then finally became Bettahome DIY Shop, sadly it is now a collection of storage units and an instrument shop! We have no names for any of the people in the image, can we have some help?
