Today, I’m focusing on one particular neighbourhood in South Tyneside with scenes from 1970 right through to 2024.
They include Summer in Valley View Park, Autumn in 2019 and winter sledging 56 years ago.
But I want you to come up with your own selection of 11 best suggestions for your own area of the borough.
Whether they are from the past or the present, I want to know what you love the most about your part of South Tyneside.
Tell me about your favourite things in Tyne Dock, West Park, Westoe and Horsley Hill.
Or maybe you want to share your favourite aspects of Boldon, Marsden, Cleadon, Simonside or Primrose.
Whatever your choice is, send your selections in and let’s highlight the best that our area has to offer, past or present. Email your choices to [email protected]
