see comment posted by ccz18 on 26 June. see also references to nursery and Steel's Quarry in Whitley Seaside Chronicle, inter alia :- Opening of G. Steel & Sons, market garden. Nursery gardens at Whitley Bay, opposite St Paul's Church. Mr Steel came from Berwick and determined to make this a success. The land had evidently been a garden of some sort many years ago, for in addition to a wilderness of weeds three feet deep, there was at one corner the dilapidated remains of a frame house, with a few bits of broken glass still attached. WSC 19.1.1907 letter from G. Steel & Sons, complaining that he is to be forced out of his nursery gardens by the Council; tenant since 29.9.1901; over 200 years old, a landmark; part of Fat Ox pub until 3.4.1673, when sold to John Rutherford of North Shields as old orchard; later bought by Duke of Northumberland; vineries of John Mavin were derelict in 1901, as was rest of ground; the road has been repaired by the Council, who do not need the extra land, and he wants to stay as tenant. WSC 1.9.1929 death of G. Steel 16.10.1937, age 88; started in Whitley Bay 1900 on ground opposite St Paul's Church, now occupied as shops. WSC 22.10.1937 |

Didn't this site later become Whitley Bay Bus Station - the terminus for United buses to Newcastle |

St Paul's Church(CofE)is in the middle of this view. Behind the church spire is Whitley Road, which ran through the old village, from the boundary of Cullercoats Township to Monkseaton Township. The section to the left is Park View. The section between the church and the large white fronted shop was known as Rookery View. In some sources the section through the old village was Front Street. Park Avenue, from the white shop, runs up towards the top of the picture, to the trees of Whitley Park Hall. To the bottom right is Marden Road. |

Good Image. The site to the left was Steel's Nurseries, owned by my Great Grandfather. The nursery was known as 'Percy Gardens' (No connection to any nearby street name). The site is now occupied by shops and a shopping mall. |
