    1. Re: [NMB] Bevin Boys
    2. I think that the records of Bevin Boys seem to be very much incomplete. In recent weeks I have tried to see if one Bevin Boy that I knew was listedi o the records but without any success. On Friday of last week, 26th April 2013, the 'Northern Echo' had an article that the former hostel for Bevin Boys in this region, at Plawsworth near Chestr-le-Street in County Durham, is going to have a £2m makeover. The photo that accompanied the article shows an extensive complex of buildings, one of which - said to be a Romney Hut, is to be rebuilt at the North-Eas Land, Sear & Air Museum which is next to the Nissan Car Factory in Sunderland.
