Ah yes... the shops along Whitley Road if I'm not mistaken? I believe they used to have an iron and glass covered arcade, just like Harrogate. It's amazing how many interesting things you can see in a town simply by looking upward.
I’m a freelance writer living in Whitley Bay and putting words about music in places like Prog, Classic Rock, BBCMusic, Record Collector, Mojo, & all over the interwebs. I've also written 100s of liner notes for new & archive releases. I’ve been blogging since 1999, commenting on music in particular and the arts in general, as well as whatever takes my fancy.

ReplyDeleteThat's the spot Tim. Must have been quite impressive in its day! And I totally agree about looking upward in towns for interesting things.
