Let's explore Seaton Carew's History - Hartlepool North East England
Hello and welcome back to North East Nostalgic!
Today I’m throwing it back to August last year when I visited Seaton Carew, a seaside resort in the Borough of Hartlepool. Being from Sunderland, I love being at the coast and discovering new beaches that have remnants of the old British seaside holiday.
When I arrived at Seaton Carew I thought it reminded me of a sleepy version of Whitley Bay, with it originally being a fishing village before expanding into a seaside holiday resort in the 18th and 19th century for wealthy quaker families from Darlington.

Welcome back to North East Nostalgic! I thought last Friday was going to be just an ordinary day, finishing work and just settling down for the evening with a pizza and a cup of tea whilst watching TV. A quick news bulletin on ITV news briefly mentioned it being a monumental evening for seeing the Northern Lights, a sight that has been on my bucket list for years! I popped a hoodie on over my p...

Today we’re doing something really exciting; a flight in a Tiger Moth plane across Northumberland’s coast and castles! This experience had been on my bucket list after seeing it on Instagram last year and thought it would be perfect to celebrate a milestone birthday. Did you know that Eshott Airfield trained Supermarine Spitfires from 1942-1944? It was an incredible feeling to know that I’d be ...

Very well done thank you
Great video loved every minute 🎉
Thank you! I loved having a peek inside Mackie's Corner, such an iconic building in Sunderland 😁
Awesome videos, love anything like this, great info, very interesting, keep up the good work 😀
Thank you so much! The North East has some amazing history stories!😁
Just seen my nans.cottage in this clip.it's the cottages on the seafront ( bungalows) half belonged to the lighthouse keeper & other half was grandads,(the harbourmasters) in the late 60s through to late 70s,summer holidays were always at nans right on the seafront,I didn't have to travel far with me Bottle of water ,pink slice & seaside sandwiches Mam or nana made up for us,then I was out for the day rock Pooling or crabbing & I always fe!t safe alone....They were best times but now all gone & Sundeland is now sadly unrecognizable,my nearest seaside town is Falmouth but I always hanker back to my heady days back home,you can take the girl out of Sunderland but you'll never take Sunderland out of the girl......
Took a year for the algorithm to suggest this to me, a year too long in my opinion. Great video of our beach.
I was born and brought up opposite Garth Heads 1963 to 1973 (then derelict), about a minute's walk from the Keelsman Hospital. It was a fantastic looking building, even though it was empty. My brother and I used to get into the old hospital and play in the empty rooms (kids used to do that sort of thing then).. iirc there was a "secret garden" in the centre, that seemed to be tended (which was odd). Shame that the building has fallen into such disrepair. Haven't been back to Newcastle in 30 years, and not to this area for around 40. It was nice to see footage of an environs I still remember so well. Cheers!
I remember seeing the Beatles at the Globe when i was about 10.......i think it was the globe anyway. We left for Australia in 1969.....but i still love the Smoggie accent.
Course the Hartlepool legend of The monkey of Hartlepool. Is very famous .Tynemouth is very good beach and place if you ever go there
I recommend Poplars Riverside Caravan Park East Lands Ends Haydon Bridge. It's right on the banks of the Tyne. In summer you can watch the fish jumping and see bats flying over the river catching insects at dusk. You are sent off to sleep by the river quietly babbling.
That sounds incredible, an oasis of calm and nature in Tyneside!
Welcome to God's Country
I've viewed a few of your vlogs now as I have always had a love of history since childhood but this one left me feeling depressed. What a sad looking place, empty forlorn and even desolate looking. Trouble is in Britain as other places, more and more of our history is being taken away in the name of progress which in turn means money. PS; Have to say you have a smiley pleasant visage.
I did film here quite early so it'll be why it looks really quiet, I'm more of an early bird so find it easier to capture early! There was lots going on later in the day with children playing but I try to only film the buildings and history I do agree though that was a lack to film in this particular place!☺️
You either chose an extremely & unusually quiet day or very early/late visit - where's the people, lol? Because of its wide sandy & level beaches & grassed areas Seaton is very popular with both the very young & elderly alike as it is so easily accessible. It has the usual arcades, fish & chip shops (takeaway/eat in), souvenir & ice cream shops, as well as the well patronised Gladys 40's style tea room. None of the usual "high steet" shops but Hartlepool is only a few minutes drive away down the coast and, in the opposite direction it has a wonderful nature reserve which attracts many different species of birds throughout the year. (You forgot to mention the infamous "Seaton Canoe" story, which made its own TV film). Wonderful memories of childhood day trips where your parents could take empty flasks and have them filled with boiling water from a kiosk at the side of the building near the shelter/clock tower. Big square green canvas beach shelters, wind breaks, and deck chairs for hire. I really enjoyed your historical account of the resort. Thank you.
Living in hartlepool, was surprised how many people have to put up with pebble beaches when we have long stretches of sand at seaton and from the headland to crimdon.
Had a caravan holiday as a bairn in the late 60’s😊❤
Love the Art Deco design of the buildings, I'll have to visit the tea room for a cup of tea x😊
I remember going regularly to Seaton from Stockton in the 60s when I was a child. Still go there from time to time. Thank you for posting!
There is a pillbox at trimdon
Some nice sea glass
It would be good to see then and now so we can see what it was like.
Fantastic video 👍 most enjoyable. Thank you 👍👍
Maybe thats where the" ghosts" are hiding and haunting the guests😂
As soon as I come off the A1 & see Penshaw monument in the distance I know the long drive from Cornwall is over & I'm home,it's just iconic...I Have a photo of me Man & Dad, who.used to go courting there on a Sunday ,from around 1952,long before I was born,used to love the story's they would tell me ,it was a day out & a bus trip at the time from Sunderland,not many cars then & they didn't have to pay & used to go to blue bell woods also with a picnic...Great little blog,thank you...Must visit next time I'm in the area..
Oh wow I didn’t know going to the top was a thing!
I didn't either until recently!☺️
I really enjoyed this ! Seen the Penshaw Monument a few times from a passing train window.
I'm pleased you liked it! 😀 I like to try and film my experiences as much as possible! I usually can see Penshaw Monument from my window so it's funny to see what it's like at the top!
@@northeastnostalgic5071 I have subscribed,looking forward to more sights of the North East
Splendid stuff, ta very much. I went up there as a kid but my use of a wheelchair has prevented that for a long time now. Lovely view ❤
Hopefully my video has helped you to see what it is like ☺️ If there's anything you'd like to see that you don't really have access to anymore I can definitely try to do a video!
Next one; climb Tunstall and Rock Hill; you get fantastic views out to sea and over the Town Centre
I don't think I've ever been to Tunstall or Rock Hill so I'll have to add those to the top of my list! I don't really know that side of Sunderland ☺️
@@northeastnostalgic5071 I grew up near “Tunna”. I got a summer job in Red House with the council before going to uni (1977) I found it exciting looking over the town all the way to Tunna.
Thanks for the video. I live in Yorkshire now but was brought up in Grindon and we walked up to the monument many many times. In recent years going up to the top was on my to do list but I was told it was closed. Whenever I smell wild garlic I’m transported back to the woods on the north side. Happy days.
Broadway Junior School? Wild garlic smell from Blue Bell woods to the rear of Penshaw, then Cox Green. Loved going there as a kid.
Fantastic video!Something I've always wanted to do before I moved from Durham to Yorkshire was to climb the staircase and take in the views from the balcony. Cant believe people used to walk arround the unguarded ledge all those years ago!
love it walked up there many times never got on the top lovley veiws
I love Roker❤
God's Country
Definitely! The sun really makes Sunderland shine ✨
I didn't know you could do that, its not far from me so its just gone on my to do list. Great video as usual 🙂
I don't think it's promoted much but I've popped the direct link to the ticket page in the description so it's easy to have a look ☺️ it's definitely worth going up!
Put the sun in sunlun
It definitely did today 🌞🌞
Perfect
Been there before didn’t know you could get to the top of it.
Brilliant! That looks like a whole lot of fun ❤
😅Blimey! I didn't know you could climb up the top of I 😮 I walked up to it once, in the dark. The hill certainly is a lot steeper than it appears. Great views. And a like from me 😃👍❤️
Lovely film. Very poignant. For a time in, in 1962, I lived with my grandparents on nearby Pennywell estate before I believe it later became something of a crime hotspot. My friend and I would take a short ride up to the monument via Northern's Consett bus. Then we'd climb up to the monument and lark about playing hide and seek etc. Free of charge then. No tearooms, No country park. The monument just sat alone amid open farmland. No car plant then but you could clearly see the tall chimneys of heavy industry in the distance. Now long gone I suspect. Once we were chased out of a nearby field by an angry ram. Far off innocent days. Thank you for re-kindling old memories.
What a great view.
It really was, so much to see from the top!
Absolutely beautiful scenery xx😊
It was so beautiful, the North East has some lovely scenery!
I’ve never been up but I’ve walked the many steps to the monument. I used to love Herrington Park opposite as a kid.
I hadn't really been to Herrington park before apart from the odd county show when I was a kid, but it was so lovely!
Been up to penshaw monument many times but never up to the top of the actual monument looks good
I flew 1 at Shoreham what a great experience ❤
Such an enjoyable weekend with the wonderful friendly atmosphere of the 1940's & you managed to catch my wife & me at the 16-minute point. Thank you for your excellent video
I hope you had the best time, it truly was a fab experience and hopefully I'll be back next year!😊
@@northeastnostalgic5071 Thank you for your message,hope to see you there next year
Good video
Good video, however I’d like to provide 2 important corrections. #1. The Victoria Viaduct ISNT Sunderland’s… while Washington is unfortunately apart of the City of Sunderland, the Viaduct is very PROUDLY WASHINGTONS and NOT Sunderland’s, as while Washington was originally independent, then Co.Durham, now Sunderland… the Viaduct has ALWAYS been in Washy. #2. BOTH SIDES of the Fatfield Bridge are actually INSIDE the Washington boarders.
Excellent video😊😊 Thanks for your time and effort😊😊😊😮
What a brilliant experience, you really suit the vintage outfits. I've been there many years ago and loved it. 😍 xx
What a great place this is - a living / working heritage site. I loved the overhead tramlines at the start of your video.
It's a great place! One of the workers was telling me that the trams and trolley bus do go on those lines but because of construction of new buildings the past few years that they haven't run . But they will run again once it's all finished ☺️
I like those old WW 2 songs
I love them too, especially the Andrews Sisters ones!☺️
