God bless the good people of horden 🇬🇧✌🏻❤️

how all man.

Ahh memories my husbands grandfather Reverend Redman ministered as part of the War Effort.

So get every bloody toffee nose politician and there bloody family’s And make then live there for a few years. Then see what happens

I was born there. Windsor terrace. Still go back when possible

So what happened to the industry that was supposed to have replaced the mining in Britain? Politicians in Westminster should be forced to walk around Horden for the day and get a grip of reality!

That's me Dad and Gary Gray on the top right at 3:56

Lovely watching this. My step grandad Phil George worked at Horden mine. Sure I saw him on a photo on video. My nan lived on Thorpe Road then Station Road Easington. Only saw them couple times a year as we lived down south. In 70,s I remember being taken to watch the miners gala. Remember the bandstand in the park. Lovely memories I have of visiting my baba back then.

a used to look forward to sunday morning big club, morning frank, that trophy use to give me heartburn place is gone and everyone is dead now, what a sad ending

Fantastic those were the Days... A used to work in The big club... popular place..

Born in Horden at me grandmas house on 8th Street, lived in 4th street and then Shotton road until I left the area 1970s (no jobs). All my family (men) worked in pit and women in shops. When I was a lad it was a great place, now its a dump sad to say. Dad passed a year ago, so no longer visit the place.

Canny seeing the streets and scenes of where I grew up until I left when I was 16 to join the Forces. Brought back some lovely memories. As a Sunday paper lad there was nothing like seeing the sun rising on the sea, Church Bells ringing and the Pit noises clanking away and everyone so friendly. Glad I did not have to go down the Pit like my Dad, Uncles and Grandads. Wonderful video, Thanks very much.

Thanks for posting this. My Granda Henry Harland lived in Horden and worked down the pit all his working life. My mam Irene Harland was born in 8th St, went to the "Tin School" and was married in the church at the start of the video in 1948. Her brother Harry is the one grasstrack racing his bike at 7:13 in the video. Thanks again.

Fantastc.. A used to live above Spark's the bakers years ago.. So different now tho.. Those were the Days...

I was born in Hamilton street it defo aint wat it used to be in horden now full of junkys and thieves

They killed us, tho tbh deny it. We have been left to rot and fade away

Thanks for this. Lots of memories brought back. :)

Horden colliery once one of the largest coal mines in britain with a record breaking production history. Long gone now like all the other colliery villages. At least no more young men will have to spend the best years of their lives grafting down a dirty stinking coal mine.

4.45 is my street!

I lived in 3rd st my foster father was a pit deputy a Horden colliery his name was Cecil Borden

fantastic wish it was still like that now, so sad!

Really enjoyed watching that, thanks for sharing it

Fantastic production. Salt of the earth people. Bad Government. Nowt changes.
