Sorry Stan but I'm afraid not; the Tyneside inn was further down nearer to Bowburn and literally NEXT door to the " Old Red Lion" not opposite. There is an existing pub called "The Red Lion" still in Coxhoe and there was a pub over the road from this (can't remember if it was The Black Horse) but not the one Heatha is looking for
Hi
The Inn opposite the Red Lion in Blackgate was the Three Tuns, which is now converted into flats and known as the Corner House. It's situated on the crossroads.
Trade Directories from 1855 & 1858 list Mary Lynn as the innkeeper of the Tyneside, In 1890 Martin Bell was now the licensee and in 1914 William Pattison Chisholm continued to keep the pub.
The Black Horse ( now demolished) was situated at the top of Station Road East on the southern edge of the village beside the old A177 trunk road.
