South Shields, Lawe Top, 'SKUETENDERS' documentary (Alikivi 16mins 2011).

[@swright1328]

Great to see, I lived beside the Beacon pub. There's nowhere as lovely to live as The Lawe Top. Lovely to see these familiar faces and places I love.

A great video and brings back memories of my family who lived on Hedley Street and then later I lived in Julian Street. Shame the Beacon is gone now!

My wife was born on the Lawe top and christened in St.Stephens ( the chuggy she used to call it ).We married there in 1972 and our wedding was blessed with the appearance of the Tyne Pilots Whale Choir.

[@GothBoyUK]

Really interesting piece of local history. Brings back a lot of memories of when I worked in Shields.

Pity the music is so loud, cannot here the comments :'( :'(

[@DavidAndrewsPEC]

Alikivi? That's a Finnish surname, isn't it?

[@alikivi9599]

Not that far away, was Russia - now Parnu, Estonia. Old family name.

[@DavidAndrewsPEC]

@@alikivi9599 Nice!
Often difficult to distinguish Finnish from Estonian ...

Ditch the music, it's overpowering
