Ellison Street/High St Gateshead On Tyne
A Memory of Sheriff Hill.
My memory is of my granny, Mary Jane Smith, formerly Renforth who lived at 7 Ellison St and died there in 1946. I was born in 1940 and according to my birth certificate my place of birth was Palmerstons Buildings, High St Gateshead. I believe it was above a pub on the corner of Jackson St and High St but have not been able to find these buildings on any maps of Gateshead. I remember granny taking me to the pet shop on Ellison St to chose a puppy for my birthday which was a few weeks away. Sadly, she died before my birthday so I never got my puppy.
