    I actually photographed this less than a month ago when Covid caused me to travel back from Australia. It's known as the Old Market Cross and the oldest date I found was 1636.

Stretching Out

  • Doug D said:
    Interesting photo. Do you have any idea what year this photo or the others in this series were taken? My dad grew up in an orphanage in Newcastle and was sent to Canada when he was 13 years of age as a home boy. I don't imagine the names of the boys were written down anywhere but it would be interesting all the same.
  • Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums said:
    Doug D The nearest date on file is 1910, but as they came as a set of glass lantern slides, unfortunately the names of the boys hadn't been recorded with them.

    Doug D btw we may have other records in our Archives relating to your dad. Have a look at our main website www.twmuseums.org.uk/archives or drop us an e-mail archives@twmuseums.org.uk
