The start of the parade for East Cleveland Ironstone Miners Celebration Demonstration Day, Loftus 1988. All the best parades have to have a band; this parade was led by North Skelton Silver Band.

 I had forgotten how many different organisations had made banners and took part in the parade. North Skelton Silver Band, leading the Revival banner, followed by Easington; were you there? Image courtesy of Joan Yeoman.  More groups setting off from the Leisure Centre with their banners; communities, organisations and schools all joined in. Image courtesy of Joan Yeoman.  I think the colourful banner in front of this group was from Rosecroft School, with Whitecliffe Primary from Carlin How further back. Image courtesy of Joan Yeoman.  Mrs. Himsworth with the sword and folk dancers from Loftus County Junior School are pictured marching up Deepdale Road, past the Mars Inn. Image courtesy of Joan Yeoman.  The Loftus Junior School sword dancers are pictured again; this time along West Road. Image courtesy of Joan Yeoman  Mrs. Hitchen and Mrs. Horness helped the children with Harry Dack School’s banner along West Road; followed by Warsett School. The parade went along West Road, up Westfield Terrace and Westfield Way to the football field. I believe there were stalls and activities up there but can’t remember any details. Can you tell us more? Image courtesy of Joan Yeoman.  Saltburn Victorians came in costume, followed by the Green Party and Carlin How village. Image courtesy of Joan Yeoman.  Mrs Scott, Ian Bell, Mayor Linda Bell, Peter Scott, Rev. Adam Gaunt, Mrs Marjorie Veal, Mr Gaunt, with other councillors and Loftus people, viewed the parade outside St Leonard’s church. Also present is a Guisborough Sea Cadet and members of the Army Cadets under the direction of Chief Officer R. Fielding. Can anyone help with more names, please? Image courtesy of Simon Gaunt and thanks to Vikki Bastiman for update.  This wedding group photo was taken in Tyne St, East Loftus, in 1930. The groom, Cyril Edwin Guite, is standing at the back with Sarah Elizabeth Guite (nee Hopper), and Richard Adamson Guite. Harry Bowers, Elizabeth Vincent (Harry’s wife) and the bride, Ivy Lilian Bowers, are in front. Image and details courtesy of Keith Bowers. |
