There are some good photos by David Barber on the facebook site "South Shields Photos old and new".
On Trow rocks he records names like Graham Sands, Camel Island, Lots Wife (the inspiration obvious) which I had never heard spoken and Boatie's Bay which I think I do. I certainly remember the place.
I was also interested to hear of the path alongside the Westoe Pub. Salters Trod! So named after fishing and the Norwegian influence in our area.
Anyone else heard these?
