Mrs Yeoman’s class from Harry Dack Infants; stopped for a quick snap beside the road to Liverton Mines, after walking under the railway bridge. Mrs Jemson is with us. Edward Douthwaite advises: “I can’t see myself on any of the pictures, but I’m fairly certain that I will have been out on the walk that day. How nostalgic seeing all of these images, from 30 years ago. I can’t believe that we were all so young. Wait until I show my kids, they’ll love it!” Whilst Rob Burn adds: “I have been doing some family history research and my family, the Burn family, lived at 1 East Terrace from 1861 with the Douthwaites later becoming neighbours. I have an inscribed bible they gave to my grandfather when he became a master mariner around 1910.”

I think I’ve mentioned this before, to the Left of the picture is the railway Bank, we, as kids used to go there and pick the mini strawberries – Delish! About 1951?
