Sun, Swimming, Sand & Sandwiches on The Fish Sands
As a child I swam in the sea next to the Sandwell Gate and the ruins of The Freemasons Arms which was an old pub that was on the Fish Sands. I remember sunny days, swimming and picnics with sand in my sandwiches with my friends. One day my friends noticed that when I walked back up the beach after a swim I left 'red' footprints. I had unknowingly stepped on a piece of broken glass, so I hobbled all the way round to St Hilda's Hospital where they took out the piece of glass, cleaned & bandaged my foot and gave me some 'ket' for being brave! ('ket' for those that don't know was a name for sweets when I was a child). I knew so many of my grandmother's friends that lived along the town wall that if I got caught out I could knock any house and ask to use the toilet. The lady of the house would ask "Are you hungry bairn? Would you like a slice... Read more
War Memorial
This war memorial is in what we called Old Hartlepool, near the sea by the Hartlepool Docks/Headland. The war memorial for West Hartlepool was called the Cenotaph and was in Victoria Road, West Hartlepool.
Family
I remember as a kid living in Hartlepool and always visiting there. My mum is from Hartlepool, daughter of Edith Harrison who passed away in 1986. I always remember St Hilda's as a child and my grandma's place in St Hildas walk, we used to go up every year to visit and stay on a caravan park in Seaton Carew and as an adult I brought my children here. I remember playing on the beach and were we used to live overlooking a football pitch. I haven't been there in a long while so would like to find out more about my family history especialy from my granfather's family which was Herbert Harrison and my grandmothers name was Edith Harrison, nee Edmundson so if any one can help I'd love to hear from them .
Hartlepool
I am trying to find any info on my grandmother, Frances E Robson who was born in Hartlepool 1894. Her mother was Mary Robson born 1874 and her mother was Elizabeth Frances Robson born 1842. Her husband was William Robson. They lived at numorous addresses being Hermit Street and Temperance Street - both streets are no longer there in the Headlands. I am trying to find out where these streets were - can anyone help me, as I would love to visit these places? I know Temperance Terrace still exsists. My great grandmother Mary also worked at an egg warehouse around 1911 - does anyone where this could have been? Also, does anyone know of a factory that made cosmetics or soap or anything like that - the business could have been called Fields. Or does anyone know of a family called Fields - they were a well to do family who would have lived in a big posh house with servants... Read more
Greenside in The 1940s
My memories are of Greatham mainly in the 1940s. My nan and grandad , Gertrude and Joseph Peacock Wilkinson, lived in the large house called Greenside opposite the Green, and now there are many houses there. My mum Joan was born in Greatham and lived there till she left to marry Walter Bowbanks from Stockton. I had many relations at Greatham, Aunty Minnie, Aunt May and Dolly, and I spent many happy hours on the green playing, down the beck, and at Seaton Carew. I remember with great fondness Uncle Ted and Aunt Phylis from the Grove, and their children, lots of wonderful memories.

Greatham Railway Station, And Station Houses.
Well I lived in Middlesbrough, I used to get the bus to Greatham, my sister Sylvia and I, we would visit our relations Uncle Jack Wright, and Aunty Nellie, we also had another relative there, Uncle Albert Wright and Aunty Florie. We would get off the bus and walk down the lane to where my aunty and uncle lived. They lived in one of the four houses next to the railway crossing gates. They were the greatest couple you could ever wish to meet. We used to stay at their home from time to time on school holidays, this we will never forget and loved more than anything we could ever hope for. We would get up early and feed Uncle Jack's chickens whitch he kept in a garden out of his back. We would also pick vegetables freshly grown from his garden. Later Uncle Jack would take us in the signal box at the station where he was the station master. Uncle Jack would let us pull the levers... Read more
