Pubs, a pool and a community centre – they have all faced the bulldozer in South Tyneside. Today, we are looking back at buildings which had their own date with demolition and asking ‘did you see them as they came down?’
What are your memories of these forgotten buildings?
From Temple Park pool to Hebburn Civic Centre, we have nine reminders. Take a look.
