Palmer's Jarrow Steel works. Iron ore came in and turned into steel, then onto the next stage the Rolling mills and eventually made into a Ship. Pics on my www.oldtyneside.co.uk website

This was the 'Royal Hotel' but nicknamed 'The White Lead' because of the white dust settling on it from the Lead Factory across the road. Pics on my www.oldtyneside.co.uk website

This Hotel is just over the border and is in Hebburn not Jarrow.

This are was called Jarrow Slake and at low tide was a large expanse of mud. It was known by locals as Jarrow slacks.

This is the Shell Mex oil terminal which is still there today in 2015

Jarrow Palmer's shipyard just before it closed forever

This is where coal trucks emptied the coal into a hopper which fed the coal onto the conveyor and then on to the Collier at the Staiths.

This is the covered conveyor belt system that carried coal to the Jarrow Staiths which opened in the mid 1930s. The coal came from inland Collieries in coal trucks which emptied their loads into a hopper that fed the conveyor.

Foster Blackett Lead Works just over the Jarrow border so it is in Hebburn as is the Royal Hotel across the road. White dust from the lead works settled on nearby buildings hence the nickname of the hotel ie White Lead.

This is Western Road in Jarrow and the photo from my website www.oldtyneside.co.uk shows one of the Pubs on that road.
