More smells from Sunderland's past - you shared your memories of all these aromas

We’ve sniffed out some more of the aromas that you most associate with Sunderland.

And what a mix of pongs and pleasant memories you have of the past.

Bread, coffee and fish

We asked for your views after we first shared the thoughts of one Echo follower who told us about a whole host of scents she remembered.

Binns for bread and coffee, and Jacky Whites for fish were among them.

It got lots more of you sharing.

Hemp from British Ropes

Gordon Yule still has memories of the hemp from British Ropes in Roker Avenue.

Bakery smells are always fantastic and it was no exception for Keith Little who loved the aromas from Milburn's in Sea Road.

Hot cross buns anyone?

Lynne Roberts was a fan of the hops from Vaux and said: “You could smell the brewery on certain days when you stepped off the bus in Park Lane. It was a lovely smell.”

The dining hall on the school ship

She wasn’t alone. Marie Wilkinson said: “Used to love the smell of the hops coming from Vaux, and seeing their horses delivering the beer and lager to the pubs.

“Used to like Binns also, buying some toys in there. There used to be a walk way underneath the road so that you could look around at Binns on the other side of the road.” Who remembers the smell from the dining hall on the school ship Nevasa. Lots of people did when we asked Echo readers for their memories in 2016.

Jim Watson took us back to a bygone era when he remembered the smell of cigarette smoke on leather seats upstairs in buses.

Tell us what you most associate with Sunderland. Both good and bad aromas.
