There are some local authors like Araf Chohan who currently have books on Amazon. Also local historian Tosh Warwick also has books on Amazon. If you "search" either of their names in the book section on Amazon you will see quite few books.

    I remember as a kid the green tiles on the masham hotel. I was born in 1980 and I’m pretty sure when I was really little there would be people drinking there? Not sure when it closed? Can remember it turning into a shop of some kind, eventually a JD sports, not sure what it is now, but I always remember being glad that over the years whoever was in there kept the tiles. It’s basically my first memory of history being preserved.

    3:44. Dovecote salerooms. Not in the Linthorpe road spot I remember as a kid. But they did the best whistling air bomb rockets around fireworks night, and they were only £1 for 10 if I remember correctly. They were made of plastic and the bang they gave off was 10x louder than a standard banger…..and they were £2 for 10. Pretty lucky none of lost a hand never mind a finger. What a blast from the past. ❤

    Why is it so heart warming to see old pictures of places you know today? I so wish google street view had been invented 100 years ago. I’m paused only 17 seconds in, on a photo of Marton…..and instantly feel I recognise it. Even though the foreground buildings are gone now, the houses in the distance are still there if I’m not mistaken, and are between the Ruds arms and the church on Marton road? With the closest buildings being where the ruds is now albeit more set back. I have no idea why I love seeing these old pictures so much but I do.

      Post WW2 and especially in the 1950's & 1960's many town planners across the UK had little regard for Victorian & Edwardian architecture so they were replaced with concrete and chrome buildings to make their towns "modern". This modernisation backfired as these new buildings aged badly but a lot of folk made a lot of money during this time of modernisation.

    Some of those hotels and pubs were magnificent buildings, looked better than many a town hall, and to be demolished is heartbreaking, the one in Linthorpe that got bombed had been beautiful. And then theres the other end some right seedy dumps but popular none the less, l used to go to the Star And Garter met some nice girls there and some who weren't as nice lol. 66 years old nearly 67, we loved going down the Boro from our market town, it was like going to las vegas compared to our quiet little places, in one of our streets was a pub that was basically an old house with its two rooms made into a bar The Miners Arms, chock full tho, mostly old men in gaberdine macs, flat caps mufflers fingerless gloves, very much like Uncle Mort, tables covered in ash trays n glasses, Wills Whiffs cigars, pipes, Capstan Full Strength fags, Babycham bottles for the odd lady, Newcastle Brown ale bottle always with a half glass, Guiness was good for you ( not 10 pints tho as l found out at 16 especially with a few packets of peanuts, many a pebble dashing job l did lol ) Whitbread Big Head Trophy Bitter The Pint That Thinks Its A Quart, Double Maxim, Forest Brown, l personally loved Youngers Tartan beer a lovely tang to it, then we went all modern with Lager and lime touches. Tried American beer Colt 45 in cans was great but the draught stuff was horrible. Hardened drinkers in the lady departments supped Barley Wine powerful stuff some of my mates who were big boozers would drink a couple of pints of it filling their glasses from the little bottles could be expensive but they got drunk quicker, not for me tho l couldn't stand the smell or taste of it it tasted thick like a syrup it was so strong. Worthington & Bass, The first lager l tasted was Carling Black Label and its the only one l liked but that changed too, l gave up drinking 21,years ago partly due to a medical condition of Vertigo an inner ear problem that affected my balance, and l would get seriouly dizzy and ill so l had to stop, was surprised by how much l haven't missed it l was never as big a drinker as my best mates but l did like a few 5 or 6 pints over about 4 and a half hours just kept me right side of tipsy, anymore and id be sick and have long hangovers, now if im invited to weddings, birthdays etc l will have a few pints but I've not been to a celebration for about 10 years now. But l loved the pubs especially in boro it was always exciting to me, met a lot of girls who liked my accent even tho we were only from 9 miles away we are more Yorkshire than towny lol, they thought we sounded posh good grief 😂 Its sad how many realpubs have vanished its even sadder how many characters have vanished too, every pub had its own character or characters who could get people laughing and joking, hardly see any of the old gadgies we used to see real old men in grey or black suits with enormous ear lobes and huge conks red and pitted with pockmark holes, they had been in wars and national service and didnt give a fig about anything. All gone now, heaven knows what they would have made of all the nonesense about now thats taken seriously. Life changes but not for the better id say
