Nine retro photos from Sunderland's Plains Farm area - we've got drums, masks and pizza making
We’re going back down the streets of Sunderland for a retro spotlight on another neighbourhood.
This time, it is Plains Farm which gets our attention and we have flashbacks to a graduation day at Premier Kindergarten, drumming at Plains Farm Primary, and World Cup celebrations in Potter Square.
Add in a slice of pizza making, a good hit of boxing and mask making at Lovegrove and it all adds up to a great mix of memories.
5. A knockout scene from 2005
Plains Farm Boxing Club was celebrating after it received new kit for its boxers in 2005. It looks like coach Neil Martin, centre, thought it was a knockout.
