An aerial View of looking south of Stockton in 1981. The line of the abandoned ‘cuckoo’ railway (now cycle route) runs through the centre. Elm Tree estate, Rimswell estate and Fairfield to the right of the cycle route.

The field north-west of the St Bedes School running track is the Stockton Town’s Wearside League football ground.
I see the hump back bridge on Darlington Back Lane is still intact. My parents moved into that road in ’82 the bridge was demolished fairly soon after that.
