My sons, through their mother's side, are descendants of John Wesley Hackworth who was born in Walbottle 1820. I'm doing a site on John for them, including material from the family archives but but would love to know where he lived in Walbottle - even better a photo I could use on the site. Can anybody help?

There are some people still who believe that the great street doesn't belong to Walbottle but, as it is now almost 200 years old, I think they've lost the plot. I was born in Dene Terrace (at home)in 1963. I love the village. To the lad who's looking for more info its mining past, I suggest he look up the North Walbottle pit site which should provide links to any information on the Bella pit. It may interest him to know that Walbottle also had a thriving brickworks at the same as the pit was in full swing.<br />Lindshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00945935999831318304noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19670640.post-57828422444124151802014-02-18T08:23:53.494+00:002014-02-18T08:23:53.494+00:00ThanksThanksNewcastle Photoshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15203742535546317042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19670640.post-73971020029643082932014-02-16T11:59:50.766+00:002014-02-16T11:59:50.766+00:00The first photograph titled "Hawthorn Terrace...The first photograph titled "Hawthorn Terrace" is Beverley Terrace where my wife grew up.

I remember him telling me the tale about a fire started at the Pub, and about how before the fire he moved a lot of spirits through a tunnel in the cellar to the Landlords hourse where he lived. My Dad (also George Charlton) seemed to think this was a true tale. My Dad married Elsie Lockhart also from Walbottle in the 1930's. Lots of my family on both sides lived in Walbottle and I spent many days there with my Aunt Nan Atkinson during school holidays.<br />Great site<br />Kneen CharltonAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19670640.post-25330898771696672832012-07-19T21:51:25.104+01:002012-07-19T21:51:25.104+01:00hi anonymous, im researching walbottle but im find...hi anonymous, im researching walbottle but im finding it hard to get information, specifically to around the 1790 to 1825 period when it was a boom town mining area. any information would be useful.<br /><br />thanks<br /><br /><br />paulrichardson237@hotmail.compaul richardsonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19670640.post-5235073232972896402012-04-07T16:52:03.967+01:002012-04-07T16:52:03.967+01:00Thanks :)Thanks :)Newcastle Photoshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15203742535546317042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19670640.post-78125044699600465542012-04-07T15:46:26.832+01:002012-04-07T15:46:26.832+01:00My family have lived in Walbottle Village for cent...My family have lived in Walbottle Village for centuries, starting out on Queen's Row,then Hawthorn Tce.,now Dene Terrace,The Green,Richmond Tce.and Percy Way and these photos are a very good representation of the 'true' village.Just for the record,Norm- it is possible to get this shot of Walbottle Hall without trespassing.
