 A cry of help from Colin Hart for any names you can supply to this photograph of the 1971 runners-up ( Bricklayers) football team in the Bury Cup. Back row: Richard Barnes, Barry Thomas, Terry Dove, Philip Wilks, Billy Jackson, Micky Wilson, Colin Marshall. Front row: Stephen Hines, Norman Smithers, Lampton Shepherd, Norman Breeze, Eric Taylor. Image courtesy of Colin Hart, thanks to Barbara McBurney, David Archer, R Simpson, Eric Taylor and Norman Walker for names to date.  This is a further image of Grinkle mine to complement the previous image. The mine was abandoned in 1934; following the development of the Boulby Potash mine further up the hillside from the Grinkle Ironstone mine very little survives to this day. The Archive would still welcome further photographs or information viewers would like to share with us.
Loftus Senior School Cricket Team were East Cleveland Cricket Cup Winners in 1956; final match score for the season was Lingdale 45 all out, Loftus 47 for 7. On the day this photograph was taken missing from the team was Ted Crake (who was ill that day!). Back Row: Eric Bailes, Mr Harold Norminton, Peter Dobson, Mike Pearson, Derek Cuthbert, Mr Malcolm Grattan, Neil Dale. Front Row: George Dix, Eric Johnson, Mike Batchelor, Mike Pearson, Bob Goldby. Image and names courtesy of Eric Johnson.  Lingdale school football team to be precise, but in later life some famed players on it: standing at the back; Mr Bowman (Headmaster) and Mr Gardiner (Sports Master).

The Archive hasn’t any further details about this picture. Some members of the cast are wearing pirate costumes, but don’t know what the production was or when it took place. Can anyone help, please? Chris Bailes tells the Archive: “This stage was in the Arlington Chapel schoolroom”. Image courtesy of Carolyn Richards and many thanks to Chris Bailes for the update.
The Archive has no information about this picture. We think it is the same stage as that in the previous one. There are young children in this production. Could they be members of the Sunday School?

I have so so much wanted to get back in touch with everyone, I can see Joanne Starsmore and Lisa Scaife and would very much like to get in touch with Caroline Teasdale if anyone can help. Omg blast from past hope everyone is well.” Do you recognise anyone? Image and information courtesy of Mrs. R.
