Or how about the pub which had three names and the one which had a groundbreaking Sunderland character behind the bar?
What about the hotel which had bedrooms in two streets or the pub which had a lion.
We have all this and more thanks to the help of Ron Lawson, the former JP who is also part of the Sunderland Antiquarian Society.
He has shared a part of his huge photo collection of 11,500 pictures with us. Take a look at Ron’s great reminders of times gone by.
