In this picture I lived in the house with the porch sticking out, just past the pub THE BLACK BULL (white building). Up the side of my house, or country cottage as it was termed, was a slaughter house at the back. I worked in Patons & Baldwins in Darlington textile mill as a woolsorter.

Here we see the impressive edifice of the Queens Hotel, built in 1875 to cater for the large number of tourists who came to Saltburn for their holidays in the late Victorian period.
