Spanish City, Whitley Bay

Image: © Gordon Hatton Taken: 13 Oct 2018

Recently restored grade 2 listed building on the sea front at Whitley Bay, now with a smart restaurant inside. Not quite what I was expecting, as I had this mental image of Dire Straits performing 'Tunnel of Love', with the line - 'And girl it looks so pretty to me like it always did. Like the Spanish City when we were kids'. No sign of Mark Knopfler!
