In the Blyth book you mention with the school children on the front, if you turn to page 87, the top picture is of the Tug Spout and the High Quay. The Lord Nelson is out of shot to the right, but it gives you an overall impression of what the street was like circa 1925 from the opposite side of the river. I think the other picture and mention of the Lord Nelson, is the picture of the Tug Spout on page 18.

One last request, please can you amend the subject title to Blyth Lord Nelson Inn etc. I only ask so that any other Blyth folk who come in on the thread later will pick up on it being a Blyth subject and not miss it as it slowly sinks down the board. Ta very much. Also, when anyone Googles those words it will show up high in the list. I'd love more of the Blyth folk to have input on this one, even some months down the line from now. You just never know who's out there looking. It might just answer their own questions or bring more info to the 'table'.

If you struggle, I am sure the Moderator (sillgen) will do it for you if asked nicely.  ;D

Thank you so much for all the information on this thread. 
My 3xg grandfather was at 9 Nelson Place on the 1901 census, and died there the same year, age 91.  His name was John Legg(e). 
Small world that I have found out so much about his residence, plus a photo of his street and a precise map of the location!
I too appreciate all the effort gone into finding this information, albeit 9 years after the initial post.
