Thank you for posting this - especially the footage of Churchill Playing Fields how I remember it - my Dad was Head Groundsman, so I spent half my life there in the 80s.

Superb footage thanks

Wow nostalgic memories... wouldn't it be nice to go back to those times no crisis COVID cost of living etc can you imagine even telling someone about it back then lol

@2:10 Sadly J Scott the bakery has now closed, which is a great shame, they made some lovely cakes. The Post Office on the opposite corner closed down too, but that was many many years ago. the post box is still there .. I think

Thanks for sharing this. Loved seeing Churchill Playing fields as I remember it.

Wonderful footage. I recognise it all

I went too school at monkseaton grammer school Great the footage of Churchill playing fields

I remember that the "school" road signs remained long after the school was demolished. They missed an opportunity to add a path through to Churchill when they demolished the building.

It’s really not changed that much wow though great video

Scott's best bakers in the north
