I've recently joined and found this old post, just incase you're still interested I took a photo of a dance card belonging to MIL Mother. This was above the Co-op, is this the mystery hall?

 

@Dawn - the Bedlington Station one on Station Road above the co-op was the Reay Hall, and the last I noticed it was Yates Evolution Gym & Tanning Centre.

The one you have the dance card for, the Locke Hall, was on Front Street East - no longer exists.

I remember going to Clarence Cooper's prize bingo in the Locke Hall with me Mam.

Did  Cooper's also  used to have the bingo on Glebe road ? I think I can remember one of the sons, was it the same family of Cooper's that lived at the showman's guild trailer site that used to be behind the Travellers pub ( Wally's ) at Scotland-gate

Looks like the family may still be in the bingo business
