A Pictorial History of Stockton-on-Tees
The Flea Market with stalls selling lots of quirky and unusual items is still held in Hodgsons Yard every Wednesday and Saturday.
A wonderful little flea Market One of my old School mates Tony Hutchinson held a stall for many years selling his paintings of Stockton and District from this market. Unhappily Tony has not been in the best of health for the past couple of years and has had to give up his stall, Tony still lives in Newham Grange Avenue next to his old School Newham Grange. Tony only took painting seriously after his retirement as a Master Chef, having traveled all over the World in his chosen profession. Tony has cooked for all sorts of Film stars, members of the Royal Family, as well as many famous people over his career which culminated as Head Chef at the ICI Restaurant Hardwick House, Stockton from where he retired to his painting career. I am sure all Tony’s Old clients and friends will wish him many more years of retirement and maybe a healthier future. Tony was 83 years old in June 2018.
