Stockton. St Michael's church

Crowds gathered round the Children's' Speak Pipe at St Michael's church, Stockton.

Children were encouraged to speak religious sayings up it in exchange for a penny in an orange or an apple which was rolled down to them. 1900s | IMAGE LOCATION: (Warwickshire County Record Office)
