Description: | Ann Street ran off Gateshead High Street. This photograph was taken during a survey of Gateshead housing taken in the 1930s. Under the Housing Act of 1930, the Council was given much greater legal power to deal with slum housing. The worst housing was in Central Gateshead. The Housing Act meant that whole areas of housing could be demolished and between 1932 and 1935 Street many streets were acquired by compulsory purchase order and demolished.
