Ryhope Street

I was born at no 1 Ryhope Street and my mother's maiden name was Vose. My grandfather Vose lived on the right hand side in the miners bungalows. I remember the field at the front of the dwellings was one big hole and there were allotments at the bottom of the road. My mum's sister lived at no 1, her surname was Wheeler, her husband was known as Cuddy. I have been back a couple of times over the years but as I was only 2 when we went back south I do not remember too much about that time.

Elephants Arriving At Fencehouses Railway Station

Does anyone recall elephants arriving by train at Fencehouses Railway Station in the 1950s and walking to Houghton-le-Spring for a circus? No one I have spoken to can recall such an event. Did I dream it?
