June 05, 2010 South Shields Market Place

















This is the view from the centre of South Shields market place - obviously not on a market day. The building I am standing underneath sits at the centre of the square and in fact used to be South Shields Town Hall until 1910 when the magnificent new Town Hall was built. The old Town Hall was built in 1768 and the centre column pictured here  is reputed to be the remains of an earlier market cross.
