A Policeman's Lot in 1916
20/06/2014 19:24:02 Carol AtkinsonIf you were under the belief that life in Haughton-le-Skerne would be quiet and crime free in 1916 then think again! Go to the Local History, Stories section and read about a Police Chase that took place on the 19th May that year. The details were taken from the Newcastle Journal. Consider there were no double crews or police radios in those days to ask for assistance!
Only the locals.
