Brilliant thanks for shearing ❤️

I was visiting family in Churhfield when one of our next door neighbours sons came in with glass in his hands, my aunty cleaned him up as best she could and asked me to take him to the North Infirmary. The boy had slid down the rubble tips opposite the parish hall. We all called them 'the heights'. In the infimary a nurse attended to him and asked what had happened, 'I fell from a height' was his reply. 'Yes but what did you fall off' she asked, 'A height' he insisted. This went back and forth a few times with each getting more and nore frustrated with the others ability to understand. So I poked my head around the curtain and explained to her what he meant. As some have said the attention was quick, friendly and good. what more could you want.

So happy to see the old Blackpool once again my folks came from seminary villas off water lane ,happiest of childhood

0:34 Blonde kid is Lee Coleman. Don't know the other one.

Lived in blackpool since 88. Still remember it looking like this.

That was lovely 😊

Talk of the old cinemas brings back lots of memories, the Capitol, and mini with the big kissing seats-which I never got to use regretfully, the Lee, the Palace, there was a place in Blackpool here yo got in with jam jars called the Lilo, later ironically a camping shop. Just some more memories of our amazing home.

Nice work Mark.

Class thanks for sharing

Better times gone forever 😢

No waiting times back then. Times when you could go to doctor and that day get a bed. Also doctors used to do house calls 24/7 so A@Es were NEVER under pressure.. And the Exern across the road (now apartments) was great if you needed stitches, physio etc etc. Now 2022 health services is crumbling big time. Very sad.

Fantastic video. I'm Welsh, born and bred, but lived and worked nr. Blackpool for 5 years between 2011 & 2016. Great to hear the lovely local accent again and also see so many places that became familiar to me during my time there.

Brilliant thanks for sharing 👍🏻☘️

Woman were much classier and looked hotter back in those days!

One in a million, a legend in the community. The best shopkeeper, neighbour and friend a person could wish for, a kinder soul you could not meet. 💖

Brilliant thanks for sharing keep up the great work ☘️☘️☘️

Was seminary court built when this was made?

The Salt of the Earth

No bugs clean, before all the contract cleaners who don't give a shit, no shortage of beds that time, imagine how backwards we've cone

It's a pity what the developers have done,they could have built the events centre sympathetic to the original building, it looks like it's swallowed up inside huge blocks of buildings, horrible 😑

Had my head glued in there as a boy thanks for sharing keep up the great work 👍🏻☘️☘️☘️

Brilliant video.

Great photo.

I have a copy of the Cork Echo from 1972 and there was a picture and story about a David Broome?, It says he was the managing director, but you hadn't a single photo of him or him with anyone else, now why is that?

My lovely Grand Uncle Willie Goode RIP

My grand uncle RIP Willie Goode ❤️

Hi there, just wondering what the best way to get in touch is? Cheers!

If you guys that own this could respond here I'd really appreciate it. My Grandfather appeared in this documentary. His name was Jerry Riordan. He was reared in Milfield Cottages (the village). I would LOVE to get a copy of the full thing. Thanks a million!

Thank you for the video.

Phelim O'Leary's dad had a hand in creating or updating Carling Black Label and we started drinking it sometime in the 1970s(?). Really really strong. Two were enough to knock you back on your heels, lol.

I can't believe I lived near there, walked by the Brewery several times a week and never went in, to the best of my knowledge!

Ah it was a very local hospital now to be fair (because it was local)

I was looking to see if I could find my uncle Jim Bradley here who worked at Beamish.

stunning

I thought this was about the ancient walls themselves.

fantastic memories

and it was spotless.no winter vomiting bugs here.. nurses were on a one to one basis with patients.proper nurses unlike today.. should have been upgraded back then instead of closing it... kathleen lynch views are typical of her two faces ..... shag the working class....... all history now.. great video..

GREAT VIDEO

They're all liars. I bet they were actually booooorn in hospitals.

I wish my Dad could have seen this.. He would be so honored & amazed by the journey his art form has taken, seeing his pics posted on a worldwide 'screen' & viewed by people the world over". We lost him in '96, yet 16 years on, along comes the CNFP who takes a fraction of his work and with it, takes us on a trip down memory lane, bringing him back close to me & reminding me not just of who I came from but also from where.. 'beautiful city, charming & pretty, beautiful city, my home by the Lee' !

Me too Skully!!! LOL! So proud, so grateful!!!

To the Cork Northside Folklore Project! OMG!!! The real crazy part of this story is that it hits closer to home than you'd think!!! Just ask my brother William! (Hammond, that is!)

Proud to be able to say "I Knew him" Skully.
