This is a view that we don’t normally see as we drive through Sandsend; the card was posted in December, 1904. Thanks to Peter Appleton for pointing out that the original caption for the image was incorrect: “This isn’t “looking east”. The coastline here runs approximately east-west. This view is looking approximately north-west.” Image courtesy of Beryl Morris, thanks to Peter Appleton for the update.  May Thompson, Carol Unthank and Audrey Dales in the school office in July, 1974. Image courtesy of Celia Parrish, thanks to Colin Hart for update on names.  Yes I would have been there with these women, can you recognise anyone? Believed to have been taken outside the chapel building in Skinningrove and also containing several men, but date is unknown. Can anybody assist? Image courtesy of the Pem Holliday Collection.  That’s what the banner says behind these men, but who were the men, what was the occasion and what group do they represent?

Okay own up were you one of the children in this photograph, believed to have been taken at Skinningrove? Be brave tell us if you were.  The caption for this photograph originally stated: “Bridge across jetty bank nearing completion, July 1950”; sadly it no longer exists! Some sixty years later even the jetty is no longer used by the steelworks. Image courtesy of the Pem Holliday Collection.  This improved image of Grinkle mine replaces an earlier image which the Archive now has to hand. The mine was abandoned in 1934, hence very little survives to this day. The Archive also requested further photographs or information viewers would like to share with us? |
