Parade in Brotton, 1908

This photograph of a parade with the North Yorkshire and Cleveland Miners’ Union banner down Brotton High Street in 1908, shows the No.1 Faithful Lodge (Brotton). The original image came to the Archive in 2010, however gthe Archive is indebted to Chris Twigg for the provison of a much improved image. It is interesting to note that the building which presently houses the Fine Food Outlet, Handy Pearson Property Services and R. A. Howard & Sons is incomplete; otherwise the High Street buildings remain very similar to this day.
