That would be the women's champs of course, but the views on this photo shot up a week later when the men's team also won.
I am unable to find the exact date for the Estate, but Bagshawes engineering closed in 1972, and the front building burned down in 1978. So 1980's would be a good guess 32 years later it is being demolished for 200 homes.
I surpose they are going to need someone to use the 'Waste Of Money' busway.

Razorbacks pitcher Duke Welker threw seven innings, allowing two runs on three hits while striking out a season-best 11 batters during Saturday's game. The Bulldogs went on to win 2-1 and clinch the weekend series over the Hogs.
Ray Duke was a Sergeant in the United States Army during the Korean War. He received a Medal of Honor for his actions on April 26, 1951. While there, he learned of some soldiers that were held down under enemy attack in an area that he was told to leave. He would lead a group of men back into that area under heavy attack to rescue the others. During this search, Duke would be shot 5 times but still marched on. When he was shoot twice in the legs, Duke was unable to walk and was slowing down the troops by having them carry him. He ordered them to leave him and retreat back to safety. The last time he was sen alive was when they put him down and ran back to safety while he was fire into the enemy area. He is buried in Chattanooga National Cemetery in Chattanooga, Tn.
The Duke of Edinburgh. I took this photo when I was 13 years old (1973) with a Yashica GT. (more on the camera later). This image, along with a number of others taken on that day were published in my local Newspaper, the Belfast Telegraph. The article was called 'The day the Queen was one of Mark's subjects'.
I remember clearly taking this photograph, even though it was a long time ago. I had just taken a number of photos of the Queen and thought my parents would like me to take some photos of the Duke as well. There was only one person in front of me and I took a few shots, including this one. However when a space came up and I moved forward, my camera at the ready and took the shot, the Duke said something that I will always remember :-
"If you get any closer with that bloody camera, you will be up my nose!"
To say I was taken aback is an understatement. I was shocked, horrified almost, and immediately lowered my camera and backed off - stung with embarrassment.
The camera had a green and red light in the viewfinder, simply green meant it was OK to take a photo and red meant it wasn't. From memory the film was Tri Pan X. The print was scanned in and touched up in PS
Duke's interesting 44kv poles. I thought they were 69kv because of the large insulators but found the correct voltage clearly labled on the substations.

Duke was kicked from G.I. Joe. Now he is workin' for COBRA!
