Description
These buildings were added to the South Tyneside local list in 2023. The local list description reads:
'An attractive terrace of 4 shops & a small private club, mostly with maisonettes above. Many interesting architectural features are evident, including 5 original hipped roof dormers, sandstone window heads & cills, quoins & banding course. Many original shopfront features are retained, including mosaic tiled entrances, polished granite plinths, & recessed entrance doors with fanlights over. The bricked-up shopfront to the private club (No. 60) detracts from the symmetry of the group, but still has some redeeming features. However, the flat roofed dormer (No. 56) and the large modern fascia & signage (No. 52) are out of character with the group, although these do not spoil the general street scene.
These buildings are referenced in the East Boldon Neighbourhood Plan (paragraphs 5.14 & 5.22).'
