Title: Property for sale - details from 1930s
Post by: Irene B on Tuesday 18 July 06 21:59 BST (UK)
While clearing out a basement at work I found lots of architects drawings and property details.  If anyone has a family connection I am quite happy to hand them over or pass on the details - some are in better condition than others and Tyne Wear archives were not interested.

67 Percy St, Newcastle
Hotel Esplanade, Whitley Bay (Robert Evans deceased)
1934 Swalwell Colliery clearance (map showing houses)
Clarendon House (hotel?) Newcastle
Ashfield Tower Site, Gosforth
1928 Eastfield Road, Whitfield Station Estate, Benton
1939 properties in Talbot St, South Shields

contact me by PM

Possibly the Duham Mining Museum might be interested in the Swalwell Colliery map.

I'm quite suprised that Tyne & Wear archives were not interested, it's all historical. >:(

Several years ago when i took some share certificates for Newcastle United late 1800's and an insurance book with  names & death dates in and they were happy to take them.

Newcastle Library also keep an archives section they might be interested.  :-\

Edit: or Beamish Museam.

Hi there, I am doing some desktop research and noticed you have drawings (possibly architects drawings) of Ashfield Towers? Do you still have these?

Many thanks,

Jane

I don’t think I have them any more, but I will have a look when I get back from holiday in about 10 days
