Every now and then, we love to put the spotlight on a Wearside neighbourhood.
This time, we have 10 archive photos from Gilley Law including the Cavaliers jazz band in 1977, the building of a housing estate in 1965 and a fun run in 1984.
That’s just for starters but to find out more, have a browse through our collection.
