The Beatles at the Middlesbrough Astoria 1963

A few weeks ago we published a feature about the time when The Rolling Stones appeared at The Outlook Club on Corporation Road in Middlesbrough in 1963. This was the first time they had played outside the London area and we have received a lot of letters and emails about the event. But one young teenage member of the club missed out that night because she was broke and could not afford to go out. But just a few weeks earlier Margaret Spark (now Margaret Atkinson) had splashed the cash on seeing the number one band at the time, The Beatles.
