To help celebrate North Shields 800, Tynemouth Photographic Society have opened up their extensive archive of pictures of historical local scenes and events, some of them dating back to 1860.
Members of their club have been able to digitalise some of these wonderful old photographs to enable them to print them and are now displayed in the window of the unit next to Boots here at The Beacon Centre.
We hope everyone who visits, enjoys their Photographic Exhibition of past times in our area.
