The area changed so much from this scene!

I've a question; I've tried many times to see images of the asbestos spoil heap that blighted Washington back in the day. Do you have any photos of it that could be shown here?

Hi Paul, Thanks for your interest. I'm planning to add two views of Newall's later on today so keep an eye out for them.
optimal chicken said:
Ah cheers. I'd love a good hunt through your photo archives..

Interesting that furnace ventilation still seems to be being used (short chimney to the left). 1965 is very late for that.

Loving this set so far!
Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums said:
Hi Paul, Really glad you like it. I've tried to create a sort of 'historical tour' of the River. If you look at the album it should take you along the Wear from the Piers all the way to Pallion. Have a great weekend.

Thank you. You too!
