There was a great full page article in The Northern Echo yesterday about part of the history of Aycliffe Village. It also publicised our history weekend, and there were thanks for Harry Moses and David Lewis. Well done chaps! If the article appears online, I’ll link to it on this page.

Hi. I was born in Aycliffe Village in 1934 at St. Eloi, Durham Road. My father was John Atkinson who was a JP and Parish and Darlington RDC Councillor for oiver 20 years (Atkinson Gardens was named after him, I believe). I have many wartime memories of village life and one or two photographs. I attended St. Andrew’s Church of England School from 1939 to 1945 and then went on toi Bishop Auckland Grammar School. The link below is my post on the BBC WWII Memories Website:-

I would be interested in meeting with members of the Historical Society or others if you think it worthwhile. If so, please email me
