hartlepool as it was in 1965

Post by Tomo »

this Will interest the town's folk who remember hartlepool in the 60's. Tony Scott's first film "boy on a bicycle" brings back memories of how the town used to look. Its centered around the coastal area hence the topic selected.

We were just talking about this ! I had no idea he was born in Shields and went to the college in town.

I didnt recognise the docks. Didnt look like that by the time I was born.

No idea there was a railway high up like that !

You'd think, but I find nothing but rubbish.

Also, I'm missing a vital piece of kit to be a man :-)
