Northallerton 1940s Day - June 22nd

A small selection of pictures from Northallerton's 1940s Day. The last picture shows the "Golden Lion Hotel" which was featured in the 1945 RAF/USAAF film "The Way to the Stars" ( also known as "Johnny in the Clouds" ). The film also used several other locations around North Yorkshire, including RAF Catterick, RAF Leeming, RAF Scorton and Thirsk for the pub interior. The film starred John Mills, Michael Redgrave, Stanley Holloway, Douglas Montgomery, Trevor Howard and Bill Owen amongst many others.
