Description: | This shows the officials of Felling Colliery c.1890. Dr. Kelly is seated in the front row, 2nd from the right. Dr. Kelly was the Medical Officer of Health for Felling Urban District Council. He produced his first report for this in 1894. His report shows that he was not impressed with the housing, living conditions and diet of the local population. He thought that drinking too much ‘strong tea’ and smoking too much tobacco, were detrimental to the health of the local inhabitants. | Format: | image/jpeg | License: | http://www.asaplive.com/Lco/Lco.cfm?ccs=629&cs=2674&Preview=1 | Publisher: | Gateshead Council | Rights holder: | Gateshead Council | Subjects: | Coal Industry | Temporal: | name=Victorian; start=1837; end=1901; | Source: | iSee Gateshead | Creator: | Unknown | Identifier: | http://isee.gateshead.gov.uk/detail.php?... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | image/jpeg | Go to resource |
