Can

"Looking north towards Ashington Town Centre - Labernum Terrace on the right" |
| Information and History Approaching the town centre, this section of North Seaton Road is flanked by shops on either side, especially on Labernum Terrace. This area brings back many memories as I used to live and play in the back street to the row of shops you can see on the right during the late 60's early 70's. One of our favourite pastimes was playing the pinball machines in Tait's Ice Cream shop or simply staring at the motorbikes in Mains window. Other shops I can recall were Oliver's the tv/radio and record shop, Rediffusions (bought our first colour telly from there). Can also remember McMeakins the Dentist (closed now) especially that flight of stairs leading up to the waiting room. Still brings on a shudder when I look back.... Also across the road used to be a Wood/Model shop and a Barbers but can't recall their names...any idea's? | |
