Dukes House Wood.
A Memory of Hexham.
I went to Dukes House Wood camp school at Easter of 1968. A whole group of us from the Boys' Grammar School in Gateshead (Avenue Road) went there. Most of us were in Oaks dormitory. I remember that huge tree growing in the middle of the field where we played cricket. Does anyone know if it is still there? For some reason, I remember the poplular songs of that time that were often played on the radio. They were "Love is blue" and Lady Madonna (Beatles). We used to spend our dough at the "Tuck Shoppe". It was beautiful up there, and the weather at the time was just great. We went on a twenty mile orienteering trek and a visit to the abbey in town.
