Description: | There were many inns on Gateshead High Street. Drinking was a popular pastime especially amongst workers who worked long hours in hot, dry and dusty conditions. Because there were very few public meeting places in Gateshead, inns were also used as venues for meetings, business and by many clubs and societies. Swinburne & Co. ran many of the inns on Gateshead High Street. These included the Atlas Inn, Central Hotel, Half Moon Inn, Dun Cow Inn, Metropole Hotel and William IV Inn amongst others. | Format: | image/jpeg | License: | http://www.asaplive.com/Lco/Lco.cfm?ccs=629&cs=2674&Preview=1 | Publisher: | Gateshead Council | Rights holder: | Davison, N. | Subjects: | Streets | Temporal: | name=1950s; start=1950; end=1959; | Source: | iSee Gateshead | Creator: | Davison, N. | Identifier: | http://isee.gateshead.gov.uk/detail.php?... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | image/jpeg | Go to resource |
