Re: dwelling [GOLDEN LION YARD]
Maybe they became rich....Newmans.... was a well known factory in Shields up until the 1980s when it closed
Further digging suggests Henry Freedman a Londoner from the Jewish east end opened the factory in the 1930s

Re: dwelling [GOLDEN LION YARD]
The Golden Lion was a very old pub in King Street South Shields, I believe it was a coaching station before the railways were built, the London coach starting from there. I have some old gazette cuttings but the quality is not good. http://i110.photobucket.com/albums/n102/Pilot_04/GoldenLion2.jpg ht...

Re: the comando pub
In Wales it depended which county you were in, I used to go to the Menai Straits regatta with my college and we stayed in Menai village on Angelsey which was dry on a Sunday, but walk over to the mainland and the pubs were open.

We used to meet in the pier bar and work our way to the mill dam ! A pickled egg in the North Eastern was about the half way point.
