Cambois Infant / Junior School
Don't know the exact year the school was built. I would assume there would be some colliery rows built when the colliery was due to start production. The Durham Mining Museum does not have a year against when the colliery was opened but it does have 1982 as the first year coal was output. The First Edition of the OS map of the Cambois area held on the National Library of Scotland is 1859 (published 1865) and there is no colliery or houses. The Second Edition - 1896 (published 1898) shows the colliery, many pit rows and the school etc.

West Sleekburn Colliery
These 19 photos are from Eddie Yarrow. Eddie made these comments in the History Hollow section of the group :-
I've found about 19 photos like this, I think from West Sleekburn Colliery in about the early 1950s?
They were taken by my dad, Grundy Watson Yarrow,..........; who is pictured in one of the photos
I would like to put names to as many miners in the photos as possible and then hopefully send them all to Ashington Archives.
Do you know any of the miners in the photos?
Although the photos are free to copy for personal use,
They are copyright for use for profit making

Bedlington Gateway Features
In 2017 four gateway features were chosen for their association with Bedlington. All are inextricably linked either by their commercial, religious or social heritage to the town. They have all been placed at strategic points to give anyone coming into the town by car or bus the maximum view point and all carry the adage "Welcome to Bedlington".

Humford Mill Waterworks & Swimming Baths
Historically, Humford, a tiny hamlet, consisted of only two houses on two separate sites – the Waterworks that were later converted into 'Humford Open Air Swimming Baths' and now the area is part of the Bedlington Country Park Local Nature Reserve.
