Professor M A (Sandy) Stewart was born in Norwich in 1937 but grew up in Gateacre. His father was the Minister of Gateacre Chapel, and the family lived at 'Chapelstead' - No.8 Gateacre Brow. Later on, following his father's early death, Sandy and his mother moved to Gorsey Cop Farm.
Sandy's boyhood memories were rekindled when he came across our book, 'Gateacre & Belle Vale in old photographs'. Although he now lives in Edinburgh - after a 30 year academic career at Lancaster University, where he was Professor of the History of Philosophy - he has kindly agreed to come and talk to us. He will be adding his own verbal 'captions' to a selection of photographs from the book.
