This is a photograph of a decorated cake competition in 1952. Chairman and Mrs. Woodrow are in the picture, but do you recognise anyone else? Image courtesy of Carole Kellogg.
Thanks to Carole Kellogg for this photo and the following information: ”It was a Daily Mirror contest I entered and got through to the finals. It was taken in Newcastle, the year? I would have to guess around 1961/62. I think the girl that won was the second from the left in the front row, and I believe she came from Redcar. I am on the far right of the back row. I have no idea who the rest of the girls were, but they came from around our area.”
We think that these were pupils at Saltburn School in 1951. Chairman Woodrow is with the group who have been presented with the cups. The headmaster of the school, Mr. Webster(?), is standing on the right. Pupils kneeling: ??, ??, Maureen Hall (later Smith), ??. Thanks to Carole Kellogg for the photo and information, also Barbara McBurney for update.
Was this a Sports Day presentation at Coatham School? The Mayor and Mayoress of Redcar and Chairman and Mrs. Woodrow are in the picture. Do you recognise anyone else? Thanks to Carole Kellogg for the photo and information.
The Mayor of Redcar, Mrs. Woodrow, the Mayoress of Redcar and Chairman Woodrow are seated behind the display of cups and trophies. The presentation was at Redcar Badminton Club, but we don’t know the names of any of the players. Thanks to Carole Kellogg for the photo and information.
Chairman and Mrs. Woodrow are in the middle of the group, but who are the other people and where are they going? Image courtesy of Carole Kellogg.
