Shared Memories of Redcar

Year: 1969
Penny Arcades
I remember our first trip to Redcar on our trip to England. The Penny Arcades were our amusement for the day. It was the old pennies, the large ones. You would insert them in the machine, and they would roll down on their edges, to another pile of pennies. And you would hope your penny would tip the rest of the pennies, and you would get a win, with a large amount of pennies returned in the bucket at the bottom. There were many types of these machines, in those days. It kept us amused that day, and I always hold in my memories of that town. Last edited: 24/11/2008 08:59 by Evelyn Jepson |

 Redcar, Lighthouse at River Tees Mouth 1925 (ref: 77751) |
Lighthouse
My Uncle Isaac (Ike) Wiles was lighthouse keeper for 50 years until his retirement, when it became automatic. He was there all through the 2nd World War. He has passed away and his children no longer live locally and I would like to hear from anyone who has memories of the lighthouse or my uncle. Last edited: 04/11/2008 13:36 by Janet Baker |
