Seaton Carew
I lived in Seaton Carew from about 1944 to 1947. My parents ran a boarding house at 4 The Cliffe, (my sister was born there) adjacent to the Staincliffe, which as I recall (I was a 4 year old) was occupied by RAF personnel. I recall the bad winter of 1946, and the tremendous amount of snowfall. My first schooldays (kindergarten?) were at Seaton Carew. We used to go hunting for crabs on Blackhall rocks when the tide was out.
Still have some old family photos taken on the beach.

RE: Seaton Carew
My grandfather was stationed at Seaton Carew in November 1914. I have a postcard he sent of the Golf House where he says they slept on the nights they were off duty. It is the same one as shown in your photo of the Golf Links 1914. Does it still exist? Does anyone know anything about the army activity here at that time?
