Memory Lane1959/1960

A Memory of Durham.

In 1959 I was a poultry student at Durham school of agriculture (Houghall) on the out skirts of the city. I lived at the college for nearly a year. My memories of my time there and times spent around the city are still fresh in my mind. Places like the ice rink, all the old streets and shops,walking up Silver Street and the policeman contoling traffic in the square - that was a novelty. The coffee bar opposite the bus station, I think it was called Demabros? The pubs that us students used: Spread Eagle, Market Tavern, County Hotel and the Rose Tree at Shincliff. Durham City is just fab-fab-fab.

That may be my Uncle Gordon Stonehouse, ex copper from Duurham, he did the traffic in the 1950s on Durham city centre. I have that same picture in my lounge. Nice memory
