what year were these photos from

Don't know the specific years I'm afraid, but late 19th & early 20th century - the one featuring the bathing pool will be the most recent, but I'm not sure when it was built.

Thanks for the "light reading" John. I've read it all and forgotten most of it. To save others the trouble it is largely to do with materials we've dumped in the sea. Most interesting to us, which we already knew, is that the smaller the sea the less sand gets moved about and the stronger the sea the greater the effect on the bottom (up to 80 metres down - not that we would worry about that this side of the horizon). Unfortunately there's not enough detail at beach level but it does pinpoint the type of bottom between Lynemouth and Hartlepool.
