This print remembers Billingham Hall, a Victorian country house, one of the town's forgotten landmarks - not surprising as it was demolished in 1935. It was built c1870 and owned by several wealthy families before the site was swallowed up by the Conifer Crescent development. Seen here in 1904 when the family of Captain Jesse Lilly are taking tea and in 1935 in its final days, the upstairs rooms commanded wonderful views of the Tees estuary and the coast up to Hartlepool.
