EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from 1988, we see Sir John Hall, the esteemed property developer and former chairman of Newcastle United football club, at Wynyard Hall Estate in County Durham. Knighted in 1991 and serving as life president of the club, Sir John is known for his influential role in both business and sport. However, it's not Sir John who steals the spotlight in this image. Instead, our attention is drawn to two young trainees: Richard Kirton, an ambitious 18-year-old commis chef, and Claire Marron, a talented 17-year-old front-of-house trainee. Together they are seen mixing a giant Christmas pudding while Sir John tests out the brandy that will be used. This heartwarming scene captures the essence of teamwork and tradition during the festive season. The anticipation builds as everyone prepares for a special Christmas Eve dinner where Sir John will savor a proper taste alongside his family and close friends. The photo showcases not only the culinary skills of these aspiring chefs but also highlights their dedication to providing exceptional service within Wynyard Hall Estate's renowned catering department. It serves as a reminder that even amidst grandeur and success, there is always room for nurturing talent and creating cherished memories. Preserved by Teesside Archive through Memory Lane Prints, this snapshot offers us a glimpse into an era when hard work met celebration at one of County Durham's most prestigious estates.
