    George Rochester was a Tynesider through and through, and his family on both sides had lived in the area for 200 years. University appointments took him away, but when in 1955 he had the opportunity to return to his roots—the Chair of Physics at Durham—he accepted with alacrity. He stayed in this city, so close to the Tyne, for the rest of his life.
