A very rare glimpse of a forgotten church in Jarrow called St Aidan's in Franklin St. I've never seen a photo of it

The 'Royal Hotel' nicknamed 'The White Lead'. Later it became Dougies Tavern. It 2013 it is being restored & is going to be a Pub/Restaurant called 'The White Lead'. Its good to see an old building from the 1800s still being used.

If you look carefully in the top left corner you can see the remains of the RMS Olympic. This image is taken shortly before she is removed to Inverkeithing for final demolition and Wards began work on dismantling the old Palmers Works and the Aerial Cranes.
