I have started a board on it about Scotswood and would like to "pin" some of your pictures to my board. It's like a mixture of posting pictures on Facebook and linking to someone's blog. Hope that makes sense.

If I find out I'll post it up here.<br /><br />It is a real shame that the older, better houses in the area are pulled down as the problem is not with the houses just a few idiots spoiling the area for everyone.<br /><br />I'll be back in Scotswood soon to photograph the area north of Scotswood bridge in case that estate goes the same way as the others!Newcastle Photoshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15203742535546317042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19670640.post-32123527274057482252009-10-30T12:26:12.364+00:002009-10-30T12:26:12.364+00:00It`s like a ghost town.

Solidly built homes were knocked down all around the area, sub standard ones built and since demolished or derelict. The old buildings could have been refurbished so that the communities could remain together.Yvonne Younghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10873321999543311944noreply@blogger.com
