With the recent republication of A History of Shawdon Hall, this prompted me to search for a vintage image of the Hall, as the ones we’ve had access to are relatively recent images. I eventually found and purchased a postcard from Berlin. Yes! Berlin in Germany. Who’d have thought that you’d have to go back to the EU to obtain old images of your local area?
We have today received some helpful guidance information from Ruth Armstrong, Locality Coordinator North Northumberland (part of Northumberland County Council’s ‘Northumberland Communities Together’). It focuses on Christmas Bubbles, the local Tier System, so-called ‘winter guidance’ and more.

Thanks once more to May Wilson sharing her personal collection of vintage photographs of Powburn and the Breamish Valley, we have been able to add another image of the Old Powburn Shop to the Breamish Valley Photographic Collection (BVPC).
Thanks to May Wilson for letting us have a copy of an old (possibly 1950s-1960s) photograph of some properties in Powburn from her personal collection.
