The image shows boys from Guisborough Grammar School participating in a game of tug of war. We do not know the names of those involved, or indeed who won.
If you have any information about whom these boys were we would love to hear from you. You can email us on ppc.museum@prior.pursglove.ac.uk
This photograph shows people watching the events of the year’s sports day. We can even see a boy and a girl stood on the bench at the back to get a better look.
The college (then grammar school) is clearly recognisable behind the event and we can faintly see the top of St Nicholas church to the right of the photograph.
