On the night of November 7th 1941 a German plane appeared from the sea, swept over the church point and headed towards the town. In a matter of minutes it would change the town forever. This special episode is released to form part of the festival of remembrance 2021. I was lucky to be invited to join the Newbiggin Genealogy Group for a walk through their towns history. It’s fascinating and moving and a wonderful listen. Please plug in your headphones and take a few moments to listen to this fascinating and harrowing tale. If you enjoy the podcast please take a minute to leave a review where you can and please pass the show on to friends, family and other interested parties, the aim is to keep local history alive through the voices from the north east podcast. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/voicesfromthenortheast/message
