Demolition site on Rutherford Street, Newcastle upon Tyne
Premises once occupied by Henry Moat and Son are in the process of being demolished to make way for a 36 storey tower block to be known as Hadrian's Tower.
Newcastle's 'new' co-op was built on Newgate Street in 1932. Although 'art decor' in style, it gave more than a nod to Egypt where Howard Carter's discovery of Tutankhamun's tomb had just taken place. See http://www.timmonet.co.uk/html/newcastle_co-op.htm
