14 retro photos to remind you of life in South Tyneside in 1991- what can you remember?

Let’s head back to South Tyneside in 1991 for today’s retro.

A Lukes Lane walk, an Ellison Primary School fundraiser, and St Wilfrid’s pupils getting ready for a performance. The common denominator is they all happened in 1991.

And here is the proof as well as half a dozen more reminders from the borough 32 years ago.

Were you pictured doing a tandem ride for Comic Relief, or appearing in a South Tyneside College band?

If you were, we have it all in the Shields Gazette archives. Take a look and then get in touch to tell us about your own memories.
