FOR this week's selection of old pictures from The Northern Echo's photo-archive, we've delved into the packet marked "Crook".
The contents show the town changing through the decades. If any of them bring back any memories, or if you have any information that you would like to add, please email chris.lloyd@nne.co.uk
