Northumberland Aged Mineworkers Homes Association

Just to say I love the site.


Great to come across the Morrison shop and the old Cooper coaches to add to our family tree story along with much background info.


I wonder if anyone could help me identify the whereabouts of the home on the attached photo of 2 unknown people. It was dated 7th September 1926 and written on the back 'with love from aunt May and uncle Jim' (relations of the Knox/Hayes or Gray family of Longbenton). Below the window I can read part of GOSFORTH.


I would love to try and identify these folk.


Hopefully.

These could be the cottages at the top end of Ethel St. in Dudley at the beginning of Gt Lime Road. I remember playing up there as a kid and the cottages definately had "Aged Miners Homes" or something similar. There's only four of them.
