This was main part of the school, the overflow went to Red Lodge on the front at Saltburn overlooking the sea. Norma Mellis Cox recalls: “I attended Saltburn High School 1949- 1952. Then we went to Redcar and became Cleveland Grammar School.” Linda Mary Treadgold asked: “Was is gender segregated in 1935 do you know? Doing research for a book. Thank you.” Katherine Broome advised: “It was the Girl’s High School. My mother attended it during the First World War and I did from September 1945 until July 1949. One of its most famous old girls was Dame Kitty Anderson who became Headmistress of North London Collegiate School; she was a contemporary of my mother.”

I was at Saltburn High School 1950-52 when we moved to Northallerton. Was the uniform navy? I was in Bronte house – what were the others? I remember the regular trek back and forth to Red Lodge in the first year, the train journey from Redcar and netball on the beach. It was a good school. Dorothy Armstrong (Taylor now).
