Title: Red House farm, Monkseaton
Post by: AllanUK on Wednesday 04 May 22 14:18 BST (UK)
Trying to find an image of Red House Farm, Monkseaton. I believe that the farm house / buildings were lost in the development of the farm in the 1970s / 80s

Can't tell you if there is an image, but there are a couple of local history books may be worth tracking down.Found by searching Newcastle library catalogue

Haven't found a photo, but you may be interested in a report of a major fire at Red House Farm Monkseaton (in occupation of Mr STOBBS) in 1889.

Thank you all for replying.

fiddlerslass -- I have looked through these excellent books in the past without success.

maddys52 -- I have seen this article in the past when searching thorough local newspapers.

Trini -- I don't use Facebook but my wife does. She joined the Monkseaton Village Facebook group last evening and found the images that you mentioned. She also posted a short request and she has received many replies with a variation of images.

Once again, thank you all.

Allan

Thank you for posting the image. A great shame that it no longer exists.
