Jarrow pub

Posted by Margaret McD on November 16, 2022, 16:46:13

Went to weekend family history conference near Kendal. Met a chap from Sunderland who is looking for a photograph of The Hylton Castle Hotel on High Street, Jarrow. His grandparents ran the pub 1900ish.

I googled Hylton Castle and just about everything came up Sunderland not Jarrow.

However there is a list of Lost Pubs In Jarrow, Durham. It does list the hotel on High St. but no picture.

So are they one and the same or different?

Thank you for looking Norman. This chap, Ian Wilkinson, has a photo taken ALONG High Street showing the name of the pub overhanging the street but none of the pub itself. His ancestor Edward Wilkinson was born 1904 and it was his parents who ran the pub. Info for Bill : Ian has no idea why a Jarrow pub would be called The Hylton Castle when (as you say) that is an area of Sunderland but Thank You too for taking an interest and searching.

The Hylton Castle pud wold have been named after hylton Castle in Sunderland which was once the home of Simon Temple who opened the local pit around 1803. Hope that this helps
