We called this the Copperworks Pond. It was a manmade brick lined reservoir & after Tharsis pulled out of Hebburn the reservoir remained unfenced, deep & dangerous. A lad called Colqhoun born about 1944 drowned in it about 1950. It was a magnet for us kids catching little fish called sticklebacks. '
