Chilling in Hartlepool - the old-fashioned way
The Hartlepool History Then & Now project has published a series of booklets.
Each is filled with atmospheric photographs and descriptions of the town in a bygone era.

The booklets are £2 each or three for £5 and they are available to buy from the Community Hub Central in York Road as well as from libraries across the town.
We start this week with Taking It Easy which looks how people enjoyed their spare time in yesteryear. It shows everything from a trip to the pictures, to a game of bowls.
Watch out for more from the booklets in the weeks to come.
