Nine retro photos of Woolworths in South Tyneside through the decades

Let's look back at Woolworths- a South Tyneside staple until the stores closed in 2009.

We have dug out these archive photos of the high street favourite and we are asking if you remember them?

Did you buy pick n mix at Woolies or perhaps you went shopping for toys.

Was it the place where you looked at the latest LPs or maybe chose a new outfit for a loved one.

Take a look at our Woolworths collection and then get in touch to tell us more.
