The Hardwick Hotel

A Memory of Blackhall Colliery.

I see an advertisement for "Chimneys Hotel" in Blackhall advertising as having been built in 1925 and formerly named the "Trust". I lived in the Trust as a boy but in Horden and believe the hotel in Blackhall (Chimneys) was in fact the "Hardwick". Can anyone tell me if I am right or wrong please?

You are wrong. The pub now known as Chimneys was at the junction of 10th street and East St. In Blackhall and was known as the Trust. The Hardwick Hotel was on Middle St.
