Fenwick's started over the other side of Northumberland St and the history is brilliant...

Another great photo.

The last one of the River is probably one of the best as it has so much content.

When I looked at the Gateshead side it’s before the Baltic Mill was built and that riverside I know nowt about.

Just keep em coming.

Allan, the Baltic was started around 1937-ish. What people refer to as a mill, was not a mill but a storage building for flour with 152 concrete silos in it. One of my last jobs was engineering the controlled demolition so they could convert it into an arts centre. Two men were killed during the building of it carrying planks when they were blown off the top 96ft up. The original mill was gutted by fire some years earlier.

Just like that another year gone by.
It's been a pleasure posting your photos on FB to try and get names for you.
I hope you and your wife are on the mend and wish you and your family a Happy New Year.
