We are going patriotic for the day to celebrate St George’s Day which takes place tomorrow (23 April).
We’ve dived into our archive to share photos of South Tyneside celebrating St George’s Day in years gone by and what a selection it is.
From parades to celebrations in supermarkets, there’s been plenty going on across the borough over the years to mark the special day.
Take a look at our gallery and see if the photos bring any memories back for you.
