Northumberland memories
Calder Farm, Roddam
Last year I visited the place in search for memories of my old folks. I came from Argentina, my country, and stayed at Cheviot View B & B run by Dean & Kay Wilkinson, lovely people, located in close by Powburn village. The story has that some almost two hundred years ago my gt gt gd father, Mr James G. Davison who had been born at the above mentioned farm came to South America and never went back to UK (about 1822). Some ten years later his younger brother Robert Gibson Davison (George Davison and Sarah Gibson were their parents) joined him and together travelled north Argentina up to Corrientes province where the set their business. For that reason I visited the Farm during July 2010 but apparently it was closed as no one answered. Since a Mr James Gibson, married abt 1798 to Eleanor Rutherford, lived at that time in the Farm, I presume the place belonged to the Gibson family but I could not trace that... Read more
Looking For Jean Laverick (maiden Name)
Does anyone know of Jean Laverick and her two sisters (Margaret and Anne) who lived in Holystone, Whitley Bay in the late 1940s? We were the NZ family who lived down the road and we played and went to Sunday School together. I would love to have contact with Jean and any member of her family after all these years. I shall be in Northumberland in June this year (2012) and it would be wonderful to meet up again. Ngaire (Atkinson)

Brownieside Cottages
My brother David and me - Jacqueline, were born in the row of cottages in Brownieside to our mum Jessie nee Bell and our Dad Harold Rose in 1942 and 1945. Dad was in the RAF and Mum was a nurse. I think we lived in the second cottage from the right. We later moved to North Charlton and then to Leeds.
I have been back since and was happy to see things hadnt changed very much from how I remembered - happy days.
The Great North Road
How great was the Great North Road when it squeezed through these ancient gates until the early 1970s? Traffic built up on both sides waiting to get through. For a child this was the spot that marked where our holidays began, as it would only be another 15 miles or so to the cottage on the coast. It felt as if we were driving through a tunnel, like stepping through the cupboard in the Narnia Books ...
Birdcage Club
Hi Pete, we still have, in our family, a much loved painting of Dunstanburgh Castle which we bought from you for 7 pounds one night in the Birdcage ! You won't remember me but I married David from the Nags Head! Found this site when looking for paintings by you. Missed one at auction recently. The Dunstanburgh one has always been treasured. Happy days !!! Sue
Alnwick, Cars Circa 1955
The above picture was from 1948, I can tell this by the types of cars here, especially the light coloured one half hidden in the background, which actually is the most modern for this year.
