Details: This hotel was built in 1938-1939 and the license transferred from the Glasgow Arms across the road to this hotel, also to be known as The Glasgow Arms In 1939 the Newcastle Sun reported: The Glasgow Arms Hotel at Carrington is to be demolished and a new modern hotel erected an another site at an estimated cost of £8500. Permission to do the work was granted to the licensee, John James Lachlan Stevens, by Mr. T. W. Cohen, at the Newcastle Licensing Court to-day. It is proposed to remove the licence from the present site at the corner of Cowper-street South and Young streets to another on the corner of Cowper-street North, Young-street, and Cowper-street South. Archer C. Castleden, architect, produced plans of the new hotel and said that it was to be built just across the street from the old premises. The existing hotel provided a requirement in the neighbourhood, but the new one would do it more adequately. The cost would be £8500, and it would take 12 months to build. The old hotel was 63 years old and in a dilapidated condition

Details: In 1921 Frank Silva was the Licensee and Wood Brothers, the owners. In investigations by the Licenses Reduction Board, the following was revealed: The hotel had five rooms available to the public and all were in use. There were three other hotels within 25 yards. Various people were interviewed. The hotel had been well conducted and there were no fines against it. The hotel catered for meals for waterside workers., George Marsden, stevedore said the hotel was about 200 yards from the inner basin at Carrington. Every class of people visited the hotel for meals. The hotel was required for the convenience of the locality. Frank Silva said he had had the hotel for thirteen years and had been hotel keeping I the district for twenty five years. In connection with coal loading it was a common thing for ship’s crews to have their meals ashore at the hotel particularly so, the Union Company’s steamers crews. Despite several good recommendations, the Clyde, was one of 23 licenced premises closed under the Licence reduction act in 1921. In 1924 the Mission to Seamen purchased the de-licensed Hotel with the intention of opening a Seamen s Club which would be run in conjunction with the Chelmsford Institute at Stockton. It would be a place where seamen from ships in the Basin could enjoy an evening away from the ship.

Details: Brief history of the beginning of Wallsend Co-operative mine in NMH in 1929: Mr. William Adam, of Throsby-street; Wickham, who. is now over 80 years of age, and was one of those engaged in the transportation of the first coal won, to Newcastle, via Iron Bark Creek. Mr. Adam wrote: My memory tells me that it was during a strike in 1862 that a party of miners first struck the coal. I well remember leaving Bullock Island in a rowing boat with a party, the other members of which were the late John Howden, James Macara, P. Clark, and my father, Thomas Adam. We went right to the head of the creek, and going up to where the coal was struck, saw the miners throwing it over their shoulders on to the bank. It was my father who had the contract to take the coal to Newcastle, and after it was brought down the creek on small punts, it was placed on board a lighter moored below the bridge (the lighter was named The Islander, and was built on Bullock Island). When the first. cargo was loaded, it took us a fortnight to get down to North Harbour, and I have reason never to forget the experience. IRON BARK CREEK. Besides being used for coal transportation, Iron Bark Creek was availed of for the conveyance of goods from Newcastle to Wallsend s first storekeepers, before the construction of Newcastle-Wallsend Coal Company s branch railway. To-day, beyond serving the purpose of Wallsend river men, keen fishermen, who have boats housed on the banks of the creek, the waterway merely is Wallsend s drainage outlet. Probably no colliery in the Northern district has had such an eventful career as the Co-operative mine. Most of the surface plant is still in use to-day in connection with operations in Wallsend-Borehole mine, a non-associated pit, which employs upwards of 60 hands, and, of course, is working regularly. As its name indicated, Co-operative was originally in the hands of a party of miners, and although the co-operative venture failed, the early struggles of the men to amass fortunes are well worthy of a fore-most place in the history of coalmining in this State. On November 25, 1861, James Fletcher, Alan Wilde, Hugh Walker, Samuel Fletcher, William Wonders, George Curtiss, Thomas Alnwick, Robert Forrester, Richard Peeks, William Davis, Duncan Cherry, William Bower, James Richardson, Matthew MacLaren, and James Nelson, all practical miners, engaged in other pits, entered into an agreement, the document setting forth that the parties had leased from Messrs. Kenrick, Kenrick. Brooks. and Company, a parcel of land containing, 1280 acres, with the right to mine the coal underlying it at a royalty of 6d per ton . TUNNEL DRIVEN. In 1862 a tunnel was driven into the outcrop of the seam, adjacent to the screens being used by Wallsend-Borehole to-day. John King and James Goldie turned the first sods, and the first manager was Alan Wilde, with Thomas Hepplewhite as under-manager. For many years the mineral was hauled out of this tunnel. The first won was carted to the head of Iron Bark Creek and loaded on to barges, for transportation to Newcastle. Then, in 1863, when Newcastle-Wallsend Coal, Company completed its branch railway, screens were erected near the junction of what is still known as the Co-operative line, and over a trestle bridge from the tunnel to the screens the loaded skips were hauled on a tram line by horses. Among those engaged as drivers were John Horn, William Hepplewhite, William Duncanson, William Richmond. John King, James Goldie, Walter Beveridge, Thomas Hepplewhite, James Adamson, George Hutchison, and George Stone
