3 Old Chapel Lane
My grandparents also lived in this bungalow and I too have cherished memories. My grandpaernts where in it till around 1981 when sadly my granddad died. My grand parents names were Edith and Arthur Carter. My dad was born in this bungalow on May 7th 1945 just as the news of the surrender of the Germans came, my nanna always said she missed out on the party because my dad came along hehe. My aunt and uncle also lived here Gordon and Jean Carter.

My grandparents, Reginald and Elizabeth Smith, lived at #3 Old Chapel Lane, the second house from the right in the photo. What a shock to see it! It brings back wonderful memories of them and my childhood.

Extracts From Laceby & South Humberside books
It is mid-afternoon siesta-time in the tranquillity
of Laceby, a hamlet close to Grimsby. Only the
white van indicates some form of human presence.
An extract from from"Humberside Pocket Album".
The church of St Cuthbert is of Early English origins, but
was restored in 1877 and partially rebuilt in brick. There
was once a south aisle, but this was removed, as was the
chancel arch. A small turret clock, with two dials, was erected
in the tower in commemoration of Queen Victoria’s jubilee.
An extract from from"Humberside Pocket Album".
The Hall was built in the early 18th century, when the parkland was
laid out; it includes the oldest monkey-puzzle trees in the world. The
house and grounds were bought by Bridlington Council in 1934 and
opened to the public by Amy Johnson. After her death on one of her
long-distance flights, her father gave her memorabilia to the Hall, and
the Amy Johnson room was opened in 1956.
An extract from from"Humberside Pocket Album".
Protected on the north-east by the
great headland of Flamborough,
there are long stretches of fine
sand both north and south of
the harbour. Away from the cold
winds, the Victorian gentry were
able to pursue their favourite
pastime - a gentle stroll.

This used to be the most genteel of the Yorkshire seaside
resorts, a view that is exemplified by the promenading of the
nouveau riche in this 1920s photograph.
