So grateful for this post - and wonderful to hear genuine admiration for Blyth … good to see some of the architectural gems we have now all but lost …

It'd be nice just to go back in time for a weekend...can you imagine trying to explain to somebody back then what awaits them for the next 30+ years.

My Dad's family was Blyth. We grew up in Morpeth when it wasn't as posh as it is now. But Blyth always felt special and more alive. I'm 46 now This video makes me feel nostalgic but I know things have gone downhill. I love Blyth Spartans and I go to Blyth when I can but its the images from the 80s that I have in mind when I go. In my opinion it's a town with so much potential. Always was and should be.

ASDA was the final nail in Blyth's coffin but the local planners did everything they could to destroy a busy shopping town, people used to travel to Blyth to shop, they don't need charity shops, bookmakers and Wetherspoons, everything the shopper needs is now on the outskirts of town at the big ASDA and no one shopping there shops in the town centre, blame Northumberland County Council's planning department,
