Hi Bette, Your email brought back memories for me. I was born and brought up in Low Spennymoor. Low Spennymoor is a part of Spennymoor. Low Spennymoor was centred around collieries (mines) and ironworks. The streets were rows and rows of terrace houses, some back to back. Most of the area was demolished during the slum clearance programme in the 1950s Ferryhill is a town about a mile away. I can remember pitmen walking along a pathway to Dean & Chapter colliery in Ferryhill. Other mines in the area were Tudhoe Colliery, Tudhoe Mill Drift, Whitworth, Leasingthorne, Chilton, Mainsforth, Fishburn, Trimdon. Men from Low Spennymoor used to catch special buses to the various surrounding collieries. Durham Records Office have excellent large scale maps of the area, possibly from the dates you seek....Good Luck...Shaun
