All my family come from Murton, some are still there. I remember as a child going to the harbour and getting fresh crabs - they were big ones, and once one grabbed my granda`s coat and we had to free him as the claws were big too. Seaham harbour beach, Crimdon Dene, Blackhall. We didn't live in Murton as my dad moved to the Midlands before I was born, but I spent a lot of my childhood in and around Murton.
I remember working on the old steam engine known as the 'coffee pot' on the dock bottom with Matty Ward and Dempsey Thyne I would like to know if either person is still with us. If anyone knows EMAIL me on diggerveg@hotmail.co.uk Thank You.
THE MEN WOULD BRING THE BOATS IN AND HANG BUNCHES OF CRABS AND FISH ON THE RAIL SO WE COULD CHOOSE OUR OWN.
