This photograph was taken in 1912 or 1913 at Boulby Barns. Ada is pictured with her three sons (little boys wore dresses then). Billy is standing; Ada is holding Teddy (Edwin) and Francis Georgina (Cissy) is sitting in the wonderful pushchair. Carole Armsby tells us: “I think Ada Codling knew my parent Ernie Armsby and Mavis who used to be Coverdale.” Anne Codling told the Archive : “I think Henry was born in 1912, so it must have been taken then.” Whilst Mary Atkinson advised: “The child in the pram is not Henry. It is Francis Georgina (Cissy).”

A lovely coloured postcard view of the valley gardens (most likely taken from the Half Penny bridge), complete with bandstand; with Rushpool Hall in the background looking rather like a fairy tale castle.

This photograph shows the new steps in place; down the cliff from Hummersea Farm to the beach, in November 2006. The old kiln looks the same as in the earlier photograph. Are the steps still there, or have they been damaged by the sea?

This photograph shows the bottom of the steps down from Hummersea Farm to the beach. The stone-built structure is thought to have been used as a kiln for the burning of cement stone – which was obtained from the uppermost levels of the alum shale.

The Archive doesn’t know what the occasion was, possibly a presentation. Carolyn Richard’s father, Harry Grange, is standing in the middle at the back of the group. Can anybody assist.

It was constructed from Aislaby and Blue Bank stone from monies raised through public subscription. The unveiling ceremony was attended by Grinkle Miners’ Brass Band, at which £27 was collected to reach the final construction costs of £369; plus clock of £35. The image came from Carolyn Richard’s grandfather; William Grange he was the Co-op Manager at Hinderwell.

This picture was taken at the front door of Boulby Barns, about 1927; Georgina (nee Thurlow) has their daughter, Isabel, on her knee. Their son, Denis seems reluctant to have his photograph taken and has turned away from the camera.
