Typical "Tyneside Flats", each with an open staircase at the rear for the upper flat. Two back gates for the separate back yards, each with a coalhouse and water closet. Modernised versions still exist as far south as Washington and Stanley in County Durham.

Strange sense of deja vu, seeing this picture. Like someplace from a dream. I wonder if any of these people are still dead.

i agree with geekem, the view is facing east, looks like those houses are still there in fact, compare the roofs.

I look at this photo and it reminds me of OUR TOWN where the actors sit there portraying the dead-- here is seems like the deceased are sitting there watching life go by. "Hey Bert, isn't that Ralph Jones driving this way? I always thought he drove Plymouths."
