Stonygate Pumping Station
Former steam powered water pumping station of the Sunderland & South Shields Water Company. There used to be the remains of a steam winch in a separate building (the roof is just visible to the left of the main entrance) but this has now been scrapped. There are several fine pumping stations in the north-east, including Ryhope.

Stonygate Pumping Station, steam winch
Horizontal single cylinder worm geared winch built c1900 by the Birtley Iron Co.
It was used as necessary for well maintenance until about 1959. When seen in 1984 it was part dismantled and it is believed the remains were scrapped between 1985 and 1995 (based on observations from infrequent visits). This was housed in a pretty little winch house adjoining the main pumping station.
