My Auntie and uncle lived in Redcar. I used to go and visit them with my mum and dad

@@RaymondFunnell-bs1wl when was that? Do you remember any of these buildings?

[@RaymondFunnell-bs1wl]

It was in the 1960s and 1970s and early eighties. I Always loved it although it was a long journey from Oxford. We would travel by South Midland and then get on the United from Victoria from London to Middlesbrough later we travelled by car

MrAndymc69 Oh, my mistake. Yes it is.

The funny thing is the buildings over the road from the shore have burried levels indicating that the street levels have risen.mudfloods .

[@tooleyheadbang4239]

No, cellars.

[@Aut0five]

might have been useful to give addresses for the buildings. The Jolly Sailor pub for example, was it on the seafront, bus station end?

1:43 Dr. Horners Hydropathic Establishment. Do any photos exist of this building as Oliver Whales' Fun City? Either when in operation, or standing forlorn after closure. (Which is how I remember it).

The old William Turner's is still there. ..now home to Redcar ABC

[@AMDronephotography]

The Sir William Turners grammar school was demolished and moved into a new building that later became Saltscar school. The ABC is in the extension that was built later. There a foundation stone on the outside along from the doorway. The only part of the original grammar school is the wall alongside Coatham Road.
