Our past films have covered Sunderland in World War I, The History of Seaburn, Ryhope our Mining Village and lots more. We have visiting speakers Phil Curtis and Sharon Vincent talking about old Sunderland with slide shows.

We meet every second Tuesday of the month in Ryhope Community Centre on Black Road at 1:30pm in the Multi-Purpose Room, so come along and join us and enjoy a cup of tea after looking back over your local heritage.

Our next meeting is:

Tuesday 14th November


Former journalist with the Sunderland Echo, Adrienne Hunter will be at the Ryhope Heritage Society meeting on Tuesday 14th November at Ryhope Community Centre to give a talk and slide show about the Victoria Hall Disaster in Sunderland.


Adrianne has researched in great detail the disaster that happened on that Saturday afternoon in June 1883 at the Victoria Hall.

Hear how 183 children were crushed to death when they stampeded down a staircase to receive their free toys after the show.

After the tragedy donations came in from all over Britain and even Queen Victoria sent a donation towards the funeral costs.

So please join us to hear this fascinating story of this real tragedy . The doors open at 1pm, talk starts at 1:30pm.
