Mac’s pet shop, the Food Weighouse, Cellar 5 and Body & Soul. There really was something for everyone in the Denton Park Shopping Centre in Newcastle around 30 years ago.
You could also get a pint in the Whin Dyke pub or fill up your car with petrol at the Denton Park service station.
Maybe you fancied something to eat from Pizza Man or Fresh Bite. The choice was yours as these scenes show from the shopping centre in the 1990s and 2000s.
Our thanks as always go to the excellent Newcastle Photo Archive which has a vast collection of pictures of Newcastle’s past and some of them stretch back hundreds of years.
We would love to hear from you if these images bring back great memories for you. Tell us more about them by emailing [email protected]
