One of Ian Turnbull's latest Drone images

Posted by Norman Dunn on 11/8/2026, 9:37 am

This Drone image from Ian is looking down from around Glen St showing Station Rd running up the left of the photo & Fountains Park where the Newtown School once was opposite the Shopping Centre.The large building at bottom of photo with solar panels on the roof is the Aldi Supermarket. The large building this side of the Durham Court Multi-Storey building is 'Hebburn Central' we call 'The Hub' where there is a Library, Swimming Pool, Gym, Cafe etc etc.

Must be an old photo as you can see some empty parking spaces , a rare site these days. As contractors vans take most of them up. Nightmare

What a great photograph! So much detail!

Is the football pitch (or whatever it is) on the right part of the Hub? I don't remember seeing it when I was last in Hebburn (2019). The whole Hub complex looks much bigger than I remember it.

Yes that little Pitch is part of Hebburn Central AJG.
The 'Hub' as we call it is a great facility for our town.

My wife and I swam at the Hub every morning when we were visiting Hebburn. It's a lovely facility!
