Strangers who pass by the back door at no 7, West View, Wallsend-on-Tyne
Strangers who pass by the back door at no 7, West View, Wallsend-on-Tyne, usually gasp with astonishment at the figure of a workman at work re-pointing the wall. For that workman is only 3 years old!! He is William Siddle, a toddler who believes in starting young. He is helping to re-point the house under the supervision and keen eye of his grandfather who says of William, " He does the job as good as any grown up. He is very thorough and does not stop work for a second, even when all the boys and girls from the school opposite stop to watch him on their way home." William is not a bit frightened by heights and is just as happy working at four feet or forty feet!!. November 1953 D6884-002
