Pubs... Gateshead Durham

[ele]

Thanks for that..

I was starting to think my family may have just made these places up! At least someone has heard of them and the Globe Inn is still there? Do you know what number Old Durham Road? May send them a letter and see what they know.


Anything to do with my McGurks, I seem to hit brick walls.. dont think they want to be found.


I will soldier on (feeling sorry for myself today as have the flu)..

Thanks again.. Ele.

Hi Ele,
Try this is site http://www.gateshead-pubs.com/56187/56188.html?autoAdd=true
Tyne and Wear Archives hold the register for Gateshead pubs and planning permissions. The Globes still there. I was last in the Nelson in the 60's.

Hi Dasher,

Thanks for your suggestions..

I have tried,

Tyne and Wear Archives services,
Gateshead Council Libraries,
Durham County Council,
Newcastle Local Studies Centre,
Beamish Library,
Durham Records Online,

all with no luck, though didnt have the name Nelson Inn, only The Engineers Arms but did have the address of 3 Nelson street and the Globe Inn only had a Chatham Road address, so maybe I will email again with different addresses/names.

I also emailed the man from the pub site a few weeks back and had no reply.

Where would I find a victullars lic.? for my McGurks.

When I found out my McGurks ran pubs, thought fantastic, easy, I'm laughing.. well wasnt I wrong!! That will teach me!

Thanks again.. have a nice day/night.. Ele.

Hi Ele,
Gateshead   magistrates Court is probably where you would have to applyfor the licence.
I am surprised the Archives said that I have found loads on a pub I was researching there.

Tyne and Wear Archives has most of the licencing records for Gateshead

Thanks for your reply,

Yes it is the Tyne and Wears Arhives I need to search, but a little out of my price range for them to do a search at this point.

If anyone is heading there to do a pub search for themselves, would be much appreciated if you could keep an eye out for my McGurks. Dont need photocopies ect, quite happy with scribbled down notes, I'm not fussy. But please do not go out of your way as can take ages to search and could be no records availble.

Thanks again for your reply Peter. Have a nice day/night.. Ele..

Evenin' - or g'day,
If I can make this thing work you can look at a pic of 'The Globe' at Deckham on the site:

Oops! It worked!

If I remember rightly it was well up the hill from Cemetery Road on Old Durham Road. (ie. to the South).  'Chatham Terrace' might have been just a section of ODR.
I can't find it marked separately on an 1897 map.
(You'll have to ask 'dasher' about the beer!)
Regards.    Bob Lewis.

Hi ele,
Me again. Just having a nostalgic wander thro' the 'Gateshead Pubs' site and noticed an entry in the 'Guest Book' - someone says his g-grandad married a daughter of 'The Globe's landlord. Might be a useful contact....?
I'll try 'pasting' again.

Hmm. Looks OK. Good luck, anyway.

Bob Lewis.

PS. Let me know if I've messed up the 'pasting' and I'll try again.

G'day Bob  (sounds funny with myself saying G'day! I have a very muddled accent. Dad is from Bristol, mum from Devon, I've grown up in Australia (10 pound pom) and my Grandad who lived with us most of my life was from Glasgow... I get asked quite often with a puzzled look where I am from!

Thank you for your help.. Yes your links worked, which is great because I'm a little thick when it comes to computers. I have emailed the lady, so lets hope she may shed some light on my McGurks.. you never know your luck..

Have a nice day/night.. Eleanor..
