River Blyth, with Coal Staithes and Power Station, 1970s Incidentally, I worked at the Blyth Power Station, 1965-69. |
|
Here are a couple of photographs from 1894 taken of people who worked on the River Blyth. They were "Trimmers", the men who levelled the coal that had been "teamed" into holds of colliers. My thanks & appreciation to the photographer and the guys who preserved the photos.  The Thomas Loud was my great-grandfather, and John Loud his brother. |
  That guy at the right end of the front row is Thomas Loud, b.1826, my great-great-grandfather. Since he has a gun & dog instead of a shovel I assume that he was then retired. |
 I guess the map is from 1937, but I'm not sure. |
