Steeplechase 1961

These photos were taken in late Spring 1961 by (it is believed) Chris 'Stack' Morris.  This was the first time that a steeplechase (1500 metres) was run as an athletics event at the College, using jumps/hurdles manufactured in the workshops.

Norman Ashton, Tony Hawken and Dennis Herrell.

"I didn't wear plimsolls (tho' we now call them sneakers) 'cus they made my skinny legs look even skinnier." - Dennis
