Pyrex, Ryhope Over 60s Club and the last day of Hylton Road Primary School - they're all memories of 1982

From Fine Fare to the angling club at Pyrex – it’s hard to believe it is 40 years since they were in the news.

But it really was 1982 when all these Sunderland Echo archive photos were taken.

We also have reminders of the last day at Hylton Road Primary School and members of Ryhope Over 60s Club who were off on a trip to the Border country.

Add in a scene from Harraton School, the Blue Bell pub and rehearsals at Sunderland Drama Club and it makes up a real connection of life on Wearside four decades ago.

Does it bring back memories? The only way to find out is by taking a look for yourselves.
