Scotswood Road / Munitions Cottages
« on: Tuesday 27 September 11 10:51 BST (UK) »
Hi.
    Does anyone know the location on Scotswood road of the Munitions Cottages (or Huts).
    in Newcastle?
    It's a long road and I am unable to find them on my old map.

Looking at old pictures they were possibly at a location between William Armstrong Drive and Scotwood Road. West of the Newcastle Business Park.

Have you seen this link?

If you managed to get any information I would be glad to hear from you.  My mother and her sister were born at 17 Munitions Cottages, Scotswood Road, Benwell and I have found on-line an aerial shot of the general area.
