Hartlepool History Then & Now

A big change 1960s to 2016 (3)

What we know about this image :

Taken in the mid to late 1960s, the image is of the flower beds and shelter. The shelter is no longer there and in place of the flower beds today is a large grassed area which was seeded when the beck was diverted about 2010. To the right of the photo would be the fairy steps described in (1). The tower in the background is Claremont which was at that time either a school still or the Teachers' Centre. Part of Rosebank is also just visible.
