Hartlepool History Then & Now

Evangalist meeting Cerebos

What we know about this image :

Taken in the 1920s or 1930s, the view shows just how many women worked at 'The Cerebos' at the time. Greatham railway station was at the site and it was very easy for workers to get from Seaton, West Hartlepool, Hartlepool and other stations within minutes.

On the photo there is a banner proclaiming Christ Jesus above the group standing on the left and there appears to be a preacher speaking. Most of the women however seem to be posing for the camera rather than paying attention to the speaker.
