Some historical photographs of Hamsterley. We know very little about some of these images. If you have any information, please comment (below) or contact us.
Some of the existing images were taken from copies, so the quality is not too good. If you can let us have better originals, please contact us.
Or, if you could let us have some other old photos of Hamsterley, again, please contact us.
Just click on an image to enlarge.
Great to see this site. My father’s family is from Hamsterley – my grandparents were Frank Sanderson (1868-1955) and Edith Stephenson (1883-1922) from Bedburn. They lived at Pond House. I have information I’ll share with you when I have the time.
I look forward to receiving it.

Hi Derek,
Just read the entry about the history of Hamsterley School. In 1834, my great great aunt Jane Sanderson died in a fire at the school:-
Article now on History – ‘The accidental death of Jane Sanderson’ page.
Thanks,

I will add it to the History page shortly.
