Lyons Avenue is in the Lyons district of Hetton-Le-Hole; the nameplate on the corner house has the name 'The Lyons'. There's a blue plaque erected by Tyne & Wear County Council, (disbanded in 1986), on that corner house relating to George Stephenson and his brother Robert, who lived in a cottage in the row.
