Darrell House, Darrell Street, Brunswick Village
At the time of the publication of the 1921 edition of the Ordnance Survey Six-Inch map of the area the village of Brunswick, as such, did not exist. The area where the village now stands was occupied by Dinnington Colliery and numerous rows of miners dwellings. This property was part of the colliery. The first deep mine at the site was sunk in 1867. At its peak the colliery employed over 1000 people, but closed in February 1960.The village was initially known as Dinnington Colliery, but its name was later changed to Brunswick. The village is half in the Metropolitan Borough of North Tyneside and half in the Metropolitan Borough of Newcastle upon Tyne.

Aged Miners Homes, Brunswick Village
These terraced bungalows are typical of those in many ex-mining villages in the North East. Originally built for retired miners, many have now been sold off. These ones were in a quiet spot originally, but now have the A1 motorway not far from the bottom of their gardens.
