Westoe Colliery in the distance close to the coast. The massive head gear can be seen above the shaft and coal conveyors to the left. A mine which should never have closed..
Don Tate said:
A large area already been levelled. Would that have been housing???
optimal chicken said:
Don Tate A fair bit yes. I'd say about a third of that open space still survives - possibly less.
Don Tate said:
Thanks

The upper poster "Lent Preachers" says 1865 on it, and the lower one refers to Sunday next, 19th March. 19th March 1865 was indeed a Sunday.

Judging by the steps in the background it's from inside looking out, though the steps seem to be slightly different now: goo.gl/maps/8rZJyVidmLxTC7na6 Edit: No it is outside looking in - the angel above the door is on the outside. goo.gl/maps/sQdZfNneDmRAU1wg8

The "steps" are actually that tomb all the way over on the far wall.

There's a Female Orphan House marked on the 25", at the junction of the NCR and Annamoe Road. The Orphanage and associated church are gone, replaced by the ugly modern Park House.

At wikipedia, and a longer page at historyeye. The charity's own history page. 7 entries at the DIA, dated 1792-1937.
