Looks like a lovely little church, though I have never been inside that I can remember. I can only remember occasionally being in the Black Road area of Hebburn when I lived there.

I find it amazing when I think about it that even a little town like Hebburn can have parts that can remain largely unexplored to me and probably have "hidden treasures" like St. Oswald's.

Ive never been in the church either. Its probably because Hebburn was divided into the Colliery area, the Quay and the Newtown. i think we all stuck to our own areas.

Ann & I were married in St. Oswalds Church 1965.

Regretfully never been back since that day having moved South.
