I attended Benfieldside Junior School to around 1963/64. I think the headmaster was Mr Appleby and my teacher Mr Watchman who was a prisoner of war and taught the class some German (which I still remember!) My family emigrated to New Zealand but the stories of the school and the red dust still touch me.
Mum used to go courting with my Dad i Rossi's. I was born in Doncaster in 1974 and i have very fond memories of visiting relatives in Consett in the 1980's xx
