Born in Consett and still have relatives there, Barretts, Careys, Brennans. My Nan Margaret Barrett lived on Oakdale Road. I was Christened at St Patrick's Church. Thank you for sharing as I haven't been home to the UK in some time and it's been a very long time since i visited Consett.
That’s nice to know. I’m pleased you enjoyed it. If you have any other specific walks you’d like in particular within the northeast let me know I’d happily upload requests.
Born in leadgate,parents move to delves lane a couple of years later,loved the place.still visit consett when I’m in the north east,so many changes ,don’t miss the red dust though 😅
Lived in Consett from I was 3 months old until I was 29 years old and the town has gone downhill in recent years and now I live in Chester Le Street, 13 miles East of Consett has more things to offer now I’m afraid 😟
I spent quite a few market days in Chester Le Street as a kid. Rooting through all the VHS tapes. Fond memories of the place, and the old Co-op building!
would love to know which day of the week this was taken and the time of day.. I haven’t been to Consett for many years. would love to see. walk around Stanley. Yes the shopping centres certainly killed the high street.
From memory it was taken on a Saturday lunch time on an Annual Food Market day in Bishop. So it was extra busy. I go to consett weekly and it isn’t what it was. Though I still prefer it over Bishop or Stanley. Consett is a very friendly place. Thank you for watching. Take care.
