A Selection of Memories from Jarrow
For many years now, we've been inviting visitors to our website to add their own memories to share their experiences of life as it was, prompted by the photographs in our archive. Here are some from Jarrow
Sparked a Memory for you?
If this has sparked a memory, why not share it here?
My mother raised money abseiling down the flat. She also abseiled down Table Top mountain in South Africa....and built a Well.
This also has a darker memory....
It was from the 8th floor. I bore witness.

I was born at 221 Hedgely Road, Hebburn in 1938 and spent the war years there before moving to Prudhoe where my father Bob had started work at ICI. I still have some memories of the old town including the lakes, St bedes Well, my school St Oswalds, the Clock Hotel and the local St Oswalds church where I was christened. Are there still any folks around that remember Bob Firman and his brother Tom? I would love to hear from anyone who can throw some light on those old days.
Anyone have any memories of the Devonport family? A little girl born 1937 called Mary Doreen?..........either Joyce or Devonport?
My father, Douglas Wallace, was born in 1925 in Jarrow. He recently passed away Nov 2013. Our family is tracing our family tree. Dad's ancestors had lived in Jarrow/South Shields for many years. My sister was also born there in 1948. If anyone has any memories of the Wallace family or contacts, we would love to hear from them. You could always tell us by our red hair!
