Hi , I have just found Roots , I was born in Fatfield in Biddick Inn Terrace , and I am doing my family history .
My Nana had the fish shop opposite the terrace , my dad was a friend of Alfred Hind who wrote the book and I would love to find a copy .
My family were the Cook's and Fletchers .
I love Fatfield and the worm hill.

Hi,was that the little fish shop against the river,i remember one stood on it,s own built more like a shack is the best way to describe it.Nonetheless,the fish and chips were  something else.It was more or less down the bottom of castle street toward the river.Every year the fair would arrive and plant itself in front of the fish shop.Last time i can remember being there cliff richard was the main man singing summer holiday.Long time ago.yours Richard spear.

I was born in 2 Low Chapel Row Fatfield, moved to 24 Castle Street in 1959.  my dad was Leslie Dent, he parents were Thomas Hunter Dent and Lily (Scott) they lived in Chatershaugh, he was born in Ronald house down the Waterside. We left fatfield in 1975 mam and dad returned to the 'council houses in 1987 living in Westward place until progress mvoed dad out.
