The Archive was unsure about where this photograph was taken, but following comments now known to be the James Finegan Hall at Eston. Ray Tough tells us: ” Vince Teasdale is on the photograph, so it was during his term as Mayor of Langbaurgh Borough Council and to Vince’s left is Mr Abigail, the Chief Executive of Langbaurgh. The person on the far left could be Stan Barton from Brotton but I’m not too sure, and the person on his right could be Sam “Paddy” Tombe.” David Walsh advises: ”Not sure that it’s Stan Barton but the person next to him is Sammy Tombe who died some years back. It is certainly the James Finegan Hall (and I am old enough to remember Jim Finegan).”
