Happy Birthday Foxy, hope you have a great day.

Thanks Alan, a bit of good detective work there.

Magic Alan, second image from bottom solves the problem of when the new YM was opened. Looks like 26th May 1961. Cheers mate

Not sure if you have seen this, Alan and Richard? but it shows Bedlington United, Bedlington and Bedlington Terriers (Northumberland Senior Cup). Was there a team called just, Bedlington in the 90s? https://www.nufc.com/2018-19html/senior-cup-history.html

Mostly Pigeons, but there was only a hand full of allotments there. Entrance was from the cut and they were sandwiched between the gardens of Pioneer Terrace and Waverley Avenue. I have not been past that area for a lot of years but I think they built houses or flats on that land both sides of the cut.

Yes but on the right hand side, the left hand side was allotments. Right hand side was know as Moles farm.

Looking at google earth I think Tullys may have been no 27, but to be honest I have never heard of Wingrove House. I remember Moles farm house on Pioneer Terrace.

Could no 28 have been Tullys the dentist if not it must be pretty close?

Happy birthday Brian, hope you have a great day. Will you be having a barbie and a cold beer?

Happy Birthday Vic, Hope you have a great day. Have you still got snow or is the weather changing?

A bit more evidence, check out this site, 3rd qualifying round. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1961–62_FA_Cup_qualifying_rounds Ashington 2 2 Bedlington Replay Bedlington 1 4 Ashington Does not mention the venue but I was definitely there (Station Park)

I would agree with the Station park. I watched them play Ashington in an FA cup preliminary round 1961 at the Station park. reason I remember it as 1961, it was the year I left school.

Signed

Hope you have a great day Brian, have you got the barbie on?

A bit late But Happy Birthday Canny Lass, hope you had/have a great day
