York Avenue for our Jarrow regulars

A nice photo taken in York Avenue late 40s early 50s, and we've just missed one of my board Admins Mac Cummings getting on that Bus.

Lots of memories of that bus stop where we waited for the 16 (or the 18 if we didn't mind the Cook's tour) returning from my grandma's in Norham Tce. After dark you could see the light from Tynemouth lighthouse if you knew where to focus. Now of course the trees in Valley View park obstruct that view across York Ave.

My brothers in laws lived in Langley Terrace just off York Avenue. He married in 1951. It was a lovely quiet and wide road as I remember it.

Sheila, my friend also lived on Langley Terrace, it was a beautiful place I loved it, I knew that area so well, as I used to stay at their home quite often, very happy memories.
