I was researching two streets in Byker for another thread and I came upon this article from 1906 listing changes to street names in Newcastle. It's always uncertain how well the OCR has worked at BNA so I thought it was worth transcribing and posting here in case anyone finds it useful in future. I've also reformatted it from a block of text to a list for ease of reading.
