Newbold Verdon Primary School

School Trip To Ilam Hall, Ashbourne, Derbyshire 1966 / 1967

The following three photographs were all taken on a school trip to Ilam Hall in Ashbourne Derbyshire.

The pictures were all kindly donated by Tim Bent and he believes the trip was in either 1966 or 1967.

The first photograph was taken in the school yard waiting for the coach to arrive.

 


Back Row: Melitta Challis, Kevin Boulton ,Stephen Fox, Carol Hincks, Melvyn Freestone, Vivian Burnham, Ruth Evetts, Neil Brearley , Martin Bayliss and Jane Allen.

Front Row: Kathleen Bonner ,Tim Bent, Hilary Jones, Helen Preston, Pamela Baker, Diane Prime, Graham Statham, Colin Townsend, Rodney White, Derek Woodward and Robert Hurst.

The second photograph was taken on top of what Tim believes to be Thorpe Cloud Hill.

 


Left to Right: Martin Bayliss , Stephen Fox, Colin Townsend , Graham Statham, Melitta Challis with the front middle being: Pamela Baker and Jane Allen.

The final photo was taken from a long distance on Thorpe Cloud Hill and is obviously a little more difficult to identify people with the resolution not being as strong.

 


Many thanks to Tim Bent for providing these photos and for identifying people within them.
