EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the vibrant atmosphere of the Bedlington Miners Picnic in the 1960s. The image captures a heartwarming moment between youthful admirers and Mr. William Kinghorn, a member of the Whitley Bay and District Pipe Band from Coldstream. Dressed in their smart uniforms, these children eagerly gather around Mr. Kinghorn, who participated in the parade for his impeccable style at this prestigious event celebrating Northumberland's mining heritage. The bagpipes he holds exude an air of tradition and cultural significance. Among his audience are Joseph Johnson, a twelve-year-old boy, and Ronald Martin, aged ten - both hailing from Choppington. Their eyes sparkle with admiration as they take in every note played by Mr. Kinghorn's bagpipes. This photograph not only showcases the joyous spirit of parades but also serves as a poignant reminder of the coal mining industry that once thrived in this region of the UK. It symbolizes an era when communities gathered to celebrate their shared history and pay tribute to those working tirelessly underground. Preserved through time by Memory Lane Prints, this snapshot offers us a glimpse into UK social history during a period defined by industrial prowess and community solidarity – reminding us all of our roots while honoring those who shaped our past.
