| | King Street, South Shields 1968, plus the legend of Newcastle Brown Ale |
 | | A bustling scene, King Street, South Shields in 1968, in the days before it was closed to traffic and made into a pedestrian only area. |
 | | For example, although sold in a pint bottle, it was tradition to drink it from a half-pint glass, pouring in the first half and then continually topping up the glass with the rest of the contents from the bottle. |
 | | Other pubs in King Street which are no longer there include The Golden Lion (next door to Marks and Spencer's store), The Scarborough Spa, The Black and Grey, The Eagle Vaults, and I'm sure there were more. |
