The Jolly Bowman
This pub has absolutely nothing to do with archery. The name is the result of a naming competition. "Bowman" is a play on the "Beaumont" which was one of the main coal seams in the area.

North Tyneside College
The entrance to North Tyneside College, which has expanded considerably since the photographer attended many years ago. The design of the main building is supposed to be redolent of a ship - maybe it is if you squint.

The Black Path
One of the numerous waggonways in North Tyneside which once served the coalmines of the area and have now been converted into a series of footpaths and bridleways. Here two parallel paths have been developed - to the left a tarmac path for cyclists, to the right a cinder path for horse riders. Not that the cyclist in view seems to take note of the distinction.

Waggonway Stone
At intervals along this stretch of waggonway there were several rocks with plaques on them depicting something relating to the pit. Examples are pit ponies, Davy lamp, pick axe. Maybe it was thought that locals needed these items explained to them!!
