Ray Brown tells us: \u201dThe area the children are playing on will now form part of the row of houses known as Liverton Road and by the style of the Liverton Road Houses I would suspect these were built in the 1930s \u2013 so my guess is circa 1910-20s? Google Earth says the Houses facing are called St. George\u2019s Terrace \u2013 not quite sure on that one, I can say that the end one was once occupied by Sister Grace Parks \u2013 a staunch Methodist.\u201d Graham Suggett advises: &#8220;I can help a little. My mother (Florence Brown) born at Number 3 Graham Street, Liverton Mines, was in service as a girl of 16 from August 1919 until April 1921 with Mrs C. W. Gains who lived at 1 Cliff Terrace, Liverton Mines. I have happy memories of visiting my grandparents, Alice and Harry Brown and many happy hours in Liverton Wood with Uncle Harry and his spaniel Raq.&#8221;. Graham Suggett has a further update: &#8220;Google wrong about St George\u2019s Terrace. The picture is Cliff Terrace (Cliff without an e) and the street to the left is Liverton Terrace. I cannot remember Zeppelins but I was there to see a Lockheed Hudson crash during WWII in what is now St Cuthbert\u2019s Walk. I well remember that there were a lot of remains of buildings from the ironstone mine amongst which we played and also the skyline was dominated by the slag heaps. Very occasionally we ventured up those to the north though walking was difficult because of the loose slag. The big one to the south was separated by a path leading to Liverton Wood. We never dared to climb up the big one. The reservoir of the mine was still there and used by my grandfather to raise ducks.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Image courtesy of Cleveland Ironstone Mining Museum and thanks to Ray Brown, Raymond Wilkinson and particularly Graham Suggett for the updates.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<\/p>\n<p>Liverton Mines, but not as we know it today, what date would you put on this photograph.
