And the link between them all is that all the photos were taken from the air.
We have the Newcastle Photo Archive to thank once more for these scenes which stretch from Newburn in 1910 to Arthur’s Hill in 1984.
We are indebted to the photo archive which is an online library of excellent photos from Newcastle’s past.
It also includes the Western bypass and Eldon Square under construction. There’s the Monument, Pilgrim Street, Rye Hill and the bridges over the Tyne.
Have a look and see if there is a building, housing area, school or possibly pub that you can remember from the past.
