NY8355 : Shilburn Road, Allendale Town
taken 4 years ago, near to Allendale Town, Northumberland, England

Shilburn Road, Allendale Town
On the right side is the former County Primary School, dated 1879, a Grade II Listed Building NY8355 : Twenty years of schoolin' and they put you on the day shift. Below, just over the main road, part of Allendale Library is just visible NY8355 : Allendale Town Library, the rest hidden by a tree and the west end of Leadgate Terrace.
This photo was taken in an attempt to reproduce an old photo which has an old heather-thatched cottage in the right foreground (now the school carpark). 'The Thacky' (or Fosterstead) as it was known, fell down in the 1940s. The view into Allendale Town is now hidden by trees.
