| This was the Coal Exchange pub. So MB's note about coal from Newcastle being unloaded on the nearby quay is no doubt true. Sadly it's been renamed and is now The Castle in the Air. Don't ask me why. |

Subsequently discovered from the 1856 6inch map that its original name was The Castle in the Air. That's why. Apologies to whoever returned it to it's original name. Well done. |
