    1 Index There are three indices below – one of ships mentioned; one of place-names, including street-names, in Sunderland, the North East and elsewhere; and a general index which covers most people and any other aspects of the book. In one or two cases (the names of all the pupils at Peareth Children’s Home, Claremont School and Rock Lodge School, for instance) I have only included the names where they individuals are part of a story. I have also omitted from the index any lists, like the list of mansions in Roker. In places of potential confusion (e.g. the Abbs and Hutchinson families), I have included birth and death dates. A number followed by n is in the footnotes on that page; by p, there is an image on that page. 2 Index of ships mentioned Aaron Eaton 181-182, 319 Fountain 132 Achilles 40 Four Sisters 132 Adam White 150 Fy Choo 133 Agenor(ia) 79, 359 Alarm 63 G.R.

  • Draft Sunderland Seafront Cct Economic Plan
    DRAFT SUNDERLAND SEAFRONT CCT ECONOMIC PLAN INTRODUCTION Common to many historic resorts in the UK Sunderland’s twin resorts of Seaburn and Roker, which together form Sunderland Seafront, suffered declining fortunes towards the latter part of the twentieth century. However since 2009 a city-wide commitment to the revitalisation of the seafront, supported by considerable public investment and external funding has been successful in instigating a change in fortunes for the area. This regeneration activity has been underpinned by a robust strategic and policy platform and extensive public and stakeholder engagement, which continues to be current and relevant. This Economic Plan provides an overview of economic priorities over the next 5 years geared towards further achieving the community’s aspirations for Sunderland Seafront. 1. Name of CCT: Sunderland Seafront Coastal Communities Team 2.

  • The Way of Learning Route
    !1 JARROW TO DURHAM Route Description Introduction The route is 61 kilometres or 38 miles. It is the most urban of the routes with two thirds of the route on minor roads or paved paths, but it is a route that is full of interest. I have divided the route into 5 sections of between 10 to 17 kms in length." Section 1 Jarrow to South Shields 10 km" Jarrow Leaving St Paul's Church, cross the road at Church Bank, continue along the wide tarmac path opposite (River Don footpath) until you reach mosaic incorporated into tarmac. Do not cross the bridge here, but take the left fork adjacent to river, under Straker Street (A185) and across to a point where the metro line crosses A19. Turn left, under the metro line bridge and left again, then first right following River Don footpath, under A19 - WATCH YOUR HEAD! Continue on the paved path to Jarrow Cemetery. Cross Cemetery Road and continue walking along the River Don footpath, soon crossing from the west to the east side of the river then back again to the west side at the next bridge. Stay on this side of the river until you reach Roman Road." The Robin Hood Pub is a few metres further on to your left, but you cross over Roman Road to pass under Leam Lane bridge (the A194). Hedworth Lane bends to the left, but you take the tarmac path !2 which continues by the river, until it comes out again at Hedworth Lane. Turn right and when you reach the top of the hill cross the road and bear left to Thorntree Walk with the Greyhound Inn nearby to your right.
