We're well versed with the past - 9 retro Hartlepool photos to celebrate World Poetry Day

Worldwide poetry was celebrated earlier this week and we are joining in with scenes from Hartlepool’s past.

Poets of all varieties have made the pages of the Mail over the years and here are some from St Aidan’s Primary School, Fens Primary, Foggy Furze Library and the University Hospital of Hartlepool.

We’ve got reminders from Stranton Primary and St Hild’s School and we want you to write down your own words and share your memories of these scenes.

Take a look.
