I was baptised at the Brunswick Chapel and also went to the Sunday School, which was at the back of the church. My sister also attended Girl Guides there. It’s a shame that it had to be demolished, I think the weight of the snow on the roof caused damage. It had some beautiful stained glass windows inside.
I am looking up history of the Wesleyan Sunday School, Brunswick Mews. I would love to know about it as it is a recovery village for drug and alcohol. It has some beautiful features, I believe some were shops in Brunswick Mews. It still has beautiful coloured glass and lovely verandas. I would appreciate any information about its history. It is situated in William Street, Stockton on Tees and the back door leads into Brunswick Street.
The people of Stockton are remembering their 1245 dead on a website 1245 Sunflowers , and further details of the men from Brunswick may be found here http://www.1245sunflowers.org/
