This derelict land is where the Tennant's Chemical Works once was. It started in Hebburn about 1865 and eventually became the United Alkali Co.

This was a fish'n'chip shop on Church St/Ann St corner. About 5 yrs after this photo was taken the profile of the rooftops on Ann St was changed forever as a German bomb demolished a couple of the houses. The gap where they once were is still there today as they were never rebuilt. Pics of it on my www.oldtyneside.co.uk website

These houses were called 'Tyne View Terrace' & previously belonged to the Tennant's Chemical Works where their managers lived. In the 40s & 50s after Tennant's were no longer in Hebburn my McNeill relatives lived in one of the houses. They had a tennis court, indoor bathroom, & even a telephone which was a left over from when Tennant's people lived there. The photo shows my aunt Jane McNeill in the garden at Tyne View.

These sheds were built by the Newcastle Shipbuilding Company who started up in 1919 & went bankrupt 1921. They stood unused until the end of the 1920s when the Reay Gearworks took them over. Later Geo Angus took over & later still RW Transmissions. RWT closed down in the mid 70s & now the land is a Housing Estate. Photo from my www.oldtyneside.co.uk website
