Here's footage of that ship's launch. Imagine living in that street with the noise!Love coming across these. They're time capsules of days within living memory now gone. This is from about 1972/3 of a ship under construction in Wallsend. Any more for any more...?

When I worked at British Steel the view out of my window was of those blast furnaceshttps://i.pinimg.com/736x/51/36/0d/51360d93f22745b49086e72c3d9f98ad--middlesbrough-bank.jpg
One of my grandads worked in the middle furnace 1918-1958
Jesus r00fie, I got pins and needles in me feet when I saw that top one!38,000 tons of steel!
View from the pully-wheel at the top of the crane on the opposing pillar.
