[dawnyb]

hiya i've just discovered this site so i'm totally new. i live in benwell 2mins away from ethel street,adelaide terrace. the street you mentioned mitford road is it possible it could be milford rd?
delaval rd runs from benwell lane down to armstrong rd. milford rd is the first left off delaval rd from benwell lane.
hope this helps

Hi dawn,
Faithen will be really pleased to hear from you - nothing better than having someone who lives 'on the spot' so to speak. I'm in Northants, so can help in some ways, but not others.
Wecome to rootschat - hope you're finding your way round the site Ok - you'll love it! You learn lots of things and encounter lots of lovely people.
Faithen probably hasn't checked his/her emails yet; so will probably get back to you later.
Take care,
Paulene

Hi Faithen

TWAS in Newcastle has loads of photos of old Newcastle.  Many were taken just prior to demolition in that area.
