EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the 1940s at Pelaw Main Betty Pit near Birtley. The image captures a heartwarming moment as young boys, pupils of a special training school for boys, eagerly learn about the care of pit ponies during a lesson given by W. Adamson in 1942. Amongst the group stands Alex Fletcher, an 18-year-old lad from Barley Mow in Birtley. His beaming smile reflects the joy and enthusiasm shared by all these brave souls who were part of the Bevin Boys program during World War II. Coal education was crucial during those times, and these boys embraced their role with determination and happiness. Their dedication to learning how to care for pit ponies showcases their commitment to supporting coal mining efforts amidst the chaos of war. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we can't help but feel inspired by these young minds eager to contribute their skills towards a greater cause. It serves as a reminder that even in challenging circumstances like World War II, there were moments of hope and camaraderie that brought smiles to faces. This print is not just an image; it's a testament to resilience, teamwork, and unwavering spirit—a tribute to those who played vital roles behind-the-scenes during one of history's darkest chapters: World War II.
