Here’s a round up of pictures of city life from this month.
1. Setting the stage
Enabling works forged ahead on the site earmarked for film and TV studios in Pallion in March. Although the future of the studios is still dependent on funding, works to prepare the land took place on the brownfield land to the east of Northern Spire. Diggers were on site as part of the initial works which need to take place to prepare the land for future investment. | Sunderland Echo
