This is a great link for anyone wanting photos/pictures/information on times gone by on Tyneside & the north east...I think other areas are catered for too.

That site was mentioned to me because of the bits about Blyth and the lad thought I'd like to see the old shots of the Harbour since I used to fish there a lot as a kid.

There's often some good stuff from the North East crops on the Urban Exploration forums, like derelictplaces.co.uk, recent photo's and bits of history - but you have to search through since it covers all of the UK plus an overseas section.
