The Harbour c1955

In the 1950s and early 1960s I was very fortunate to be a regular guest at Beach Court; week-ends, and Easter and summer holidays. In those days Beadnell was indeed like a suburb of newcastle, somewhere between Gosforth and Jesmond, and practically all one's friends would be there. Dorothy's café (sometimes with piano accompaniment courtesy of Nigel), sailing, swimming off the pier, Yacht Club regattas, Saturday night hops in the WI hut and later at The Hall, and a very long list of etceteras. Great days, great memories.
