Marsden Road: One street, 9 photos, 18 years of history

We love to put the retro spotlight on South Tyneside streets from time to time.

This time it’s Marsden Road in the picture and we have photos spanning 18 years of its history.

From a pub closing down in 2005 to a campaign group up in arms about trees in 2018, we have it all.

There’s memories of a royal visit and the day when a piece of Marsden Road came to Beamish Museum.

Intrigued? Take a look at these Shields Gazette archive scenes.
