Newcastle upon Tyne, 1962

from North East Museums

    Another great photo. One question though - did Newcastle Breweries have their own power station? It could simply be a steam plant too but it's 'power station shaped'.
  • Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums said:
    Thanks for your question, Paul. If I find out what the building was used for I'll let you know. Perhaps a former employee might have the answer?

Paine's Coliseum

    Mrs Mammie Paine's Electric Coliseum Bioscope Show, which was a moving picture show, at the Hoppings held at Jesmond Dene in 1914. Prior to the Great War there were few permanent Cinemas, most people saw films on the fairground.

    I may be able to help you on that. I'll check the information I found some time ago and then come back to you on this.
