We are heading to Seaton Carew for a look at the putting greens, paddling pool, and amusement rides of the past.
Did you love a go on the Chair-o-Plane ride or the Mountain Glide? Or was a relaxing day on the beach behind a wind shelter more your idea of enjoyment?
Whatever it was, we have it all for you in these great photos from the Hartlepool Museum Service and Hartlepool Library Service.
