Bus

Do you remember Redcar bus station like this? I do. Tony Chambers tells us: ”I to remember the bus station; it was on the left at top of High Street coming in from Marske side. I was born in Redcar (1947) and left when I was 10 years old. I can remember the cinema behind or very near the clock tower. There was a children’s clinic next to cinema where we had to go each week for a spoon of thick orange juice (tasty!). The Library right side of clock on corner. Marks and Spencer’s a little further up the High Street on left of clock. King’s Ice cream on the coast road near Zetland park. I can go on and on. I have not been there since around 1961.”

” Peter Dale has memories of the Redcar bus station: “Now a car park! Quite often the buses would run away backwards, towards Lord Street, crossing the road and ending up in the Granby Café (Later to become Redcar Citizen’s Club) or the cottage next door; wooden blocks were chained to the railing stanchions at each bus stand to prevent this happening.”
