 This coloured postcard of 1905, shows the upper harbour, many of the buildings and the dock itself have been demolished and altered out of recognition compared with modern photographs of the same scene. New Quay Road now runs through the Angel Hotel Vaults building on the quay side, and much of the dock was filled in and developed. Across the harbour, to the left of the now demolished St Michael’s Church, the wide slipway to the harbour was known as Alders Waste. Image courtesy of Ken Johnson.

Image courtesy of Elizabeth Mellor, thanks to Graham Kenneth Jacks, Andy Coward and Alan Moss for the updates.  A small group this time, Alan Moss suggests: “All these photographs from the top to this one must have been taken in either 1972 or 1973. Paul Mcgrath, Peter Abrahams, Steve Hunt, Steve Rogers, me and a few of the girls, were the first intake of kids from the Laurence Jackson School to the newly created Prior Pursglove College in 1972.” Garth Dee commented: “I knew Mark Wheeler in 1978 in Sierra Leone. That would have been maybe six or seven years after this photograph. Would like to get back in touch with him.” Paul McGrath added: “Alan is right, I am second from right in back row when I had plenty of hair.” Image and names courtesy of Elizabeth Mellor, thanks to Alan Moss for the dating update, also to Garth Dee and Paul Mcgrath for the updates.

A Valentines series card, posted in 1905. Image courtesy Ken Johnson.  A different viewpoint of Saltburn Valley gardens, also known as the ”Italian Gardens” The Bandstand and Halfpenny Bridge are prominent. The view is from a handcoloured postcard, posted in 1905. Katharine Broome tells us: ”In 1941 or early 1942, the bandstand was destroyed by a bomb. For it’s size and “usefulness”, Saltburn suffered much bombing in the early part of the war. The Infants School in Upleatham Street was destroyed one night.” Image courtesy of Ken Johnson and thanks to Katharine Broome for the update. |
