A view, produced by J.W. Neal of 79 High Street Skelton; also from about 1890 viewing towards the Methodist Chapel at the bottom of Green Road (Skelton Green bank to those who were familiar with Skelton). Judy Last advises: “My maternal great grandparents; William and Mary Armstrong, lived at 71 High Street with two of their daughters, Louisa and Emma Jane. They were there from at least 1871 when they moved from 2 Woods Yard, East Terrace. William an ex Royal Artillery soldier, and now Ironstone Miner, was Verger of All Saints Church. Two of William and Mary’s daughters, Harriet and Emma Jane, became school teachers. Emma Jane teaching at Stanghow Lane School.”
