Drill Hall
A Memory of Wallsend.
It has gone the old drill hall I was born in vine street in 1947. Father was TA the 506 field squadron Royal engineers so my the connection with the building lasted a long time.I watched the Coronation in the drill hall the only TV around at that time I fired my first rifle in the range built in the roof so small at the time they had to prop the the rifle up on army greatcoats. Every year they held a Christmas party and all the kids received a gift. In later years I joined the TA for a while and trained in the drill hall.
