Photograph circa 1890
I have an old photograph and I believe it is this street before some of the buildings were built and it was taken further down. However, the Church in the background is the same. John Oswald Clazey and his family are gathered at a place called Boldon House on the back of the photo. There is a picture of the family in the back yard and then a photo of them in the front by a brick wall of sorts. I am more than happy to provide a copy if there is any interest.

Childhood memories
My mother was born in Houghton le Spring and I came here many times with her and my brother.We always had great fun with her relatives, aunts, brothers etc. I've been back several times as a grown up and brought my own children. I will be returning soon.

Summer Days
This lane has mixed memories for me, I've enjoyed some of my happiest moments running down the lane to the park at the bottom and some of the worst walking out of the church after funerals of the people I loved most but one things for sure this is one of the many pretty places in a very pretty village that always makes me smile and proud of the fact that I was born and bred here.

Home to my McCue and Routledge ancestors
This would have been an everyday sight for my ancestors who worked in the paper mill at Hendon and for the NE Railway.
