An old postcard photo dated (posted) 27th August 1971 showing the old caravan site on the front at South Shields.

Shields were always well known for their big spending on holiday facilities.

WOW. Shame there are no cars parked nearby. The caravan in the foreground, left of the lamp-post looks identical to our Sprite Muskateer, and the date is right, as we had a holiday there, at about that time.
But I thought that the site was a lot steeper than that.
Or was there another site, more towards Marsden?
