North Yorkshire memories
Cloughton 1955
My great-grandfather Ted Allan used to be the tailor at the little shop right next to the grocery shop on this photo. We used to travel up to Cloughton every Bank Holiday from the Midlands in a car just like the one in the photo.... I wonder if this was our car??? I also have lots of memories of visiting my great-grandad Isaac Sanderson and his daughter Laura Lazenby on my father's side. I visit Cloughton and Burniston whenever I can. I used to be taken to the Baptist Chapel and the Methodist Chapels on my visits but for some reason I was christened at St Mary's Church. Cloughton. I can only think this was my mother putting her foot down against the In Laws!!!! Lots of other memories of this beautiful area.
Landlords
One of my family used to own the Blacksmiths Arms many years ago, If anyone is at all interested please let me know and I will dig out who it was and when??
More Buses
Someone told me that there was a bus back from town about 10:30 at night back in the 60s. Is this true?

BMEWSS at Fylingdales
In 1962, my family (father, mother, one brother, and I) lived in Whitby and Goathland while my father, a mechanical and electrical engineer, was working on the design and construction of the Ballistic Missile Early Warning Signal System at Fylingdales, a cooperative project of the United States and Great Britain. These "golf balls," as they were called, loomed over the moors. To find photographs of the installation 45 years later has been wonderful. I understand that this installation has since been replaced with other structures. I hope to return to see them later this year.
RAF Fylingdales
I came across this site while searching history. I have a story about Fylingdales. I was 19 and posted to a place called Goldsborough and we travelled daily to Fylingdales to clear uxb ordinance. Our vehicles were recognised by red mudguards to denote bomb disposal business. Does anyone remember the vehicles in question trundling through Lyth,Sandsend, the outskirts of Whitby, Love Lane, and Ruswarp, Sleights ect? If so, share your memories with me, Geoffrey Pallett: geoffrey.m3uxb@virgin.net.
I remember the three wonderful summers we had and the changing seasons and the whistle of the trains along the valley at Gothland. I also remember the winter of 1962/63 when we were marooned and had food flown out to us as we had to stay in the builders/contractors accommodation. We had a rum ration, and it was so cold and with me not being a drinker I was bad for a few days with a stomach complaint that nearly cost me my life later in 1980. My wife of 42 years... Read more
