Several other readers have been in touch about photographs in earlier Yesterday Once More columns.

Geoff Dean called about an old photograph from our archives showing Goodramgate in 1893, which we printed on June 16.

"There is a horse-drawn carriage making its way along the cobbled street," we wrote. Well, Geoff - who now lives near Slingsby - was born in Goodramgate, and he assures us they weren't cobbles, but wooden blocks.

"I remember when they took them up because everybody got wooden blocks for their fires," he said.

That must have been in the late 1930s or early 1940s, because the family (who lived in what was then a butcher's shop with a slaughterhouse behind, next to what is now Boyes) moved out of the street in 1943.

"My father kept on the butcher's shop, but we moved to New Lane in Huntington," Geoff says.

Moving onto the two photographs of level crossings in Haxby which we carried on June 30. Stephen Lamb from Northallerton emailed to point out that we had incorrectly labelled one.

"In my youth I lived in New Earswick and cycled over both those crossings regularly," he wrote.

"The picture taken in 1965 is of Haxby Road crossing (the road leading from New Earswick to York Road). You refer to the crossing as being new; this probably refers to the fact that new gates had been installed, which were powered by electric motors as opposed to being wound across manually by the signalman in the cabin."

And finally, Kenneth Durkin from Pocklington got in touch about a photograph we carried recently (supplied by Mr Durkin himself) which showed the Queen Victoria's jubilee celebrations in the town in 1897. We drew attention to the old Pocklington fire engine, just visible at the left hand side of the photograph. We said it had been built by a Mr W Tinson.

Actually, Mr Tinson built the fire engine shed, Mr Durkin says - not the engine itself. "Messrs Merryweather built the engine."
