I am trying to find the locations of two old streets in Cramlington. The first is New Stone Row and the second was known as Sanderson's Buildings. Any help greatly appreciated.

Where did you see Sanderson's Buildings?

the 1861 census Piece 3851, folio 50, page 1 has the start of the enumeration of New Stone Row and continues to page 9.
The enumerators description says this district covered:
All that part of East Cramlington Colliery which forms part of the Ecclesiastical District of Seghill consisting of one hundred and forty-two houses.

The 1881 Census has "New Stone Row, Primitive Methodist Chapel" and " New Stone Row, United Methodist Free Church" so it appears that New Stone Row was renamed Lamb Street, RG11 Piece 5094 Folio 109 Page 51
You can see the Chapel and church on;

New Stone Row appears to have been renamed Lamb Street in 1911, after the census.

Thank you all,
During FH research for a friend, I found one of their relatives in the 1901 Census living in Sanderson's Buildings (RG 13/4811 Folio 51 Page 7). Having a second look at the Census, this time at the Description of the Enumeration District, I find that it lists it as Sanderson Terrace, other places listed are slightly askew e.g. the Enumeration Description shows 'All the colliery houses at West Cramlington' lists families living at Lane Row whereas the OS map shows that the street is actually Lane Road likewise Cross Row is shown on the OS map as Cross Road. Confusion reigns!!
Interesting that New Stone Row was renamed as Lamb Street (still exists today).
Once again, than you all.

One of the Chapels --- not sure which one --- now houses a business which prints motifs etc onto Tee shirts and the like
