 Celia Parrish with a group from Rosecroft School who were staying at Beadnell camp site in May, 1974; part of a school trip to Northumberland. Do you recognise yourself or somebody else in this picture? Image and information courtesy of Celia Parrish.  Taken from the road leading to Liverton, in the foreground are the flats, built at the end and to the back of Cleveland Street and as ever dominating the skyline are the Iron and Steel works. These flats named St Martin’s Close were built on the former St Martin’s Row which were part of the original Pit houses when Liverton mine was established. Thanks to Ray Brown for the information.  Do you recognise yourself here, can you tell us the occasion? Brian Stonehouse tells us: ”This photograph was taken on Redcar racecourse about November/December 1951. I was sports secretary of Loftus Youth Club and had to organise all the fixtures. We played in the area youth club league against Whitby, Redcar, Thornaby and Grangetown (who were a nursery club for Middlesbrough FC and who used to trounce us!) As we had no field all our home and away matches were played away. I picked the team and as no one ever wanted to play in goal I always got the job. Geoff Cox had a goalkeeper jersey, which I used and on that particularly day I bought it from him for five shillings. You can see the racecourse structure displaying the runners and riders between Ron Webster and Mr Harrison.” Image courtesy of Audrey Winspear and thanks to Brian Stonehouse for the update.  Mrs Parrish and all Class 1U, except Marie Grey, on the steps of a building on the former Kilton Ironstone Mine; David Richardson has assisted with: “The building is the Electric Winder House built around 1915; the steps the group are sat upon have in recent years collapsed.” At the top: Peter Scott, Gary Smith, Paul Christon, Martin Amps, Stephen Winspear, Yvette England.
