Redheugh Boys School (Prest St): A memory of Gateshead

Redheugh Boys School (Prest St)

A Memory of Gateshead.

I was born in Milling St 1941. I went to Redheugh Boys school between 1946 & 1956, I played for the school football & cricket team, we won the shield for cricket in 1955. I have great memories from my school days, some of my mates were Bob Turbett, Bill Stafford Leggy Evans, John Cook & many more, those were the good old days David Wilson.
