NZ3267 : St Mark's, Howdon
taken 18 years ago, near to Willington, North Tyneside, England
St Mark's, Howdon
A great expansion of housing since the war has resulted in a confusion of names here. In the '40s the then large area of open countryside (including a golf course) was called Willington and a small part of it to the south gave its name - Howden (with an 'e') - to the railway station. Now the larger area is called Howdon (with an 'o') with Willington only having a supporting role.
