What is the track playing at start

Not me busy tryna find me estate haha 😂

This is an incredible piece of NE industrial history - thank you for posting it up. I grew up in County Durham the 1980's & whilst many of the mines were already closed or closing I was aware of their importance to the NE and the communities where they were based. Wonderful places & people & even as a kid it was often heart breaking to see these communities start to disappear. Barely a trace of any of them these days do it's wonderful that footage like this still available.

The council should open main street up to cars again and for the kids let them ride bikes over the bogs , I spent most of my time riding over the bogs some of my best memories

Pontop pike is a marker for annfield plain? Are you off your nut? It’s in Dipton

I want to go! What a delightful place! I have recently been visiting the North East and have fallen in love with the people. I’m due to visit again in a few weeks on a fact finding mission and I will definitely be visiting Stanley. I’ve been watching various TH-cam videos and some of what I have learnt scares the living daylights out of me! Despite this I’m still strongly drawn to the place and it’s people. Thank you for this wonderful wonderful video showcasing all that this marvellous places has to offer. Thank you to all the lovely people who gave their time. I stumbled across this video by accident but who knows where it might lead 😊

In UK and Falkland there is a town/city named Stanley, that is good to know.

What a humble person 💪! No matter what or how , it can be done 👌 never get ambition mixed up with capability 😉.

Great video ... easy to follow, looking forward to the next one ... Thanks Simon.

Arthur’s gym What a place Many a good memory going to Arthur’s gym

Back in the 60s, when I lived in a hostel for young civil servants in Highbury, London, John in the next bed came from Stanley. I imagined it to be a dark and dingy colliery town, so I´m pleasantly surprised that it´s surrounded by countryside. I later met a girl called Margaret, a soprano, at the Royal Academy of Music. We were just good mates. She came from Anfield Plain. If anyone knows her, give her best regards from Neil. I suppose the closure of the collieries caused a lot of social upheaval.

Completely effortless

My Grandfather was a hewer at the pit and lived at Quaking houses. Four uncles also worked in the mines where one of them lost an arm in an accident. Another uncle drove a steam train for the coal company and although I live elsewhere I am proud of my working class background and proud to have met such fine people. I can still grow a canny leek mind, taught as I was by Grandad.

This is a lovely friendly look at Stanley? But it doesn’t show anything just the people, don’t you have have a football team, I do know you have a Bowls Club? So why not show the town Center?

Simon - One question. How at the end did you bring up your hard drive to show the exported file?

A great help. Thanks.
