I often posted old photos on Mike Ellison's 'Hebburn' message board. Twenty or more years ago I posted a Jarrow Park photo on it looking south into Wansbeck Rd just past the Tennis Courts (as seen on that aerial photo). A board regular at the time was Len Stephenson,a Hebburn ex pat living in Canada and he asked me a question. He said he went to Jarrow Central School & used to walk a girlfriend called Margaret Craig past those Tennis courts. Then he said he'd forgotten the name of the street so I said it is Wansbeck Rd. I asked if he could remember where in the street and he said Number 78.
The coincidence is that many years later Joan & I bought 78 Wansbeck Rd and lived there until 1986.
When we bought it in 1977 the house had been Mr Unsworth's who had recently died.
Len died a long time ago. He often phoned me to hear my 'Geordie'accent. When he was young, Len lived in Blindburn St & got evacuated to Canada WW2. After returning to Hebburn post ww2 he worked in Frasers Drawing Office, but he had fell in love with Canada so returned eventually. RIP LEN.
