Nice work. Always loved this part of town, a real olde worlde feel to the place. Also has my ancestor, Harry Clasper's Blue Plaque on the High Level Bridge.
Thank you, kind sir. Harry Clasper, for those wondering, was a prodigious rower, scoring many plaudits and prizes for outstanding speed in his little boat along the Tyne. He designed world beating racing shells with outriggers. He also invented the spoon shaped oar. He died, aged 68 in 1870.
