Foundation stone laying ceremony of the ill-fated chapel at the end of High Row and Hartington Street; this postcard image by T C Booth of Loftus shows an array of younger members of the potential congregation or were they just keen to get in the picture? This building had to be demolished following the landslip in 1927, being relocated to Deepdale Road. Marjorie Magor tells us: ” Many people (bought a brick) hence the initials on the sandstone one`s. I know my family did (DADD) Also the (ELDERS) family on Cliffe Crescent.” Yet again no further details of date, people involved etc. Can anybody help?
