Members of Ushaw Moor Women's Institute, looks like their Christmas party (1960's). Elsie Clegg in the middle cutting the cake and a very young Lilly Sowerby (nee Grayson) back row first left. Lots of local faces to bring back memories.

  • Paul Clough Wonderful photo. Lots of faces to recognise.

  • Michael Dickinson My grandma Emily Dickinson is probably on here somewhere. She used to attend chapel regularly and was buried from there when she died.

Village people attending the opening ceremony of St Luke's New Church Hall, the old hut having being demolished. I am in this photo, I wonder if anyone remembers me.

Many people may have seen this photograph in a certain publication, this is an original image, I can put names to three of the miners. Third from the left my uncle Oliver Anderson next to him his brother Fred Anderson, sixth miner is my dad Alan Brown, not sure who the others are (possibly 1950's)
