Hebburn Park Aviary

An old undated postcard photo showing the old aviary that used to be in Hebburn Park. Demolished in the mid 50's.

It's always interesting when this photo comes up, as I think it is the only one in existence showing the aviary!

It reminds me of other vanished Hebburn landmarks that we have no photos of, like the Tudor Shoppe on Victoria Road West and the illuminated map outside the old Co-Op Chemist on Hall Road. Lots of people remember them, but no photos.

This is what was once the 'Tudor Shoppe' you mentioned AJG.

Thanks Norman, I remember the Tudor Shoppe as a shop in the 1970s (I can remember getting sweets there but don't recall what else it sold) then it was a hairdressers some time in the 1980s. It must have been converted into a private house some time after that.
