I have happy memories of a summer spent with my Nannie and Grandad Gibbs. I remember walking down this street, passing 'Auntie Martha's' to the post office every day with Grandad. He used to buy me chocolate cigarettes every day. I would 'smoke' these on my walk down the lane to the woods with him. I also remember the milk churns... [more]

The window of my mum and dad's bedroom overlooked the fish and chip shop and what we called "The Bank Top". I used to creep out of bed in the summer... [more]

When the priest came the next morning and blessed me I opened my eyes. I was given a spoonful of brandy to keep me alive,... [more]

When I was at school I did the history of Loftus. The market place was used for the market stalls, I think that it should be like that again.
Bring back the meaning of Loftus market place - if anyone agrees let people know.
Even if the shops that we have bring their products out to the stalls we might... [more]

As far back as I can remember I used to visit my gran in Carlin How. My dad and his brothers and sister grew up on Westray Street.

This imposing edifice, with a front porch of great style, is perhaps surprisingly grand for such a small village on the edge of the North Yorkshire Moors. The outside staircase would suggest that the living quarters were entirely separate from the downstairs business. This hostelry is today known as the Toad Hall Arms, and stands at the northern end of the... [more]

East Cleveland Photographic Memories
The Plough Inn, now known as Toad Hall, has long provided a place of refreshment to both villagers and travellers alike. The Victorian building, with its distinctive portico, is little changed today from how it appears in this view.

The distinctive profile of Moorsholm church dominates this view as it still does today. The stone cottages to the left also remain, but the grass paddock enclosed by the stone wall has now given way to more modern
