Tuxedo Princess

Known locally as 'The Boat', this nightclub is moored directly beneath the Tyne Bridge and has become a fixture of the local clubbing scene with its legendary revolving dance floor.

The Tuxedo Princess departed the Tyne on Sunday 27th July 2008 for sunnier climes. Scroll down to see a video of it leaving and passing through the Millennium Bridge.

Hoults Yard - Old Maling Pottery

Hoults Yard is situated two miles east of the City Centre in Byker ward. It is a 3 hectare complex built in 1878 specifically for the Maling Pottery establishment. It is a large, solidly built structure owned by Hoults Estates Ltd since the 1960's. After the closure of Maling Pottery, the site provided accommodation for Hoults Estates and floorspace rented out to other local businesses, mainly for manufacturing, storage and office uses.
