Old and new!

picture of Westoe Baptist Church, Westoe Road, South Shields

Westoe Baptist Chapel

This is the rather old (1881) Westoe Baptist Chapel in Westoe Road, South Shields. It resides next to a modern office bloc, South Tyneside House, which used to be used by the Borough Council. Oddly, whilst the church is still in plentiful use, the office block is not, and is now waiting for a purchaser.
Late afternoon sunshine about an hour before sunset.

Baptist Church in UK??? Well, I guess we gave you the Baptist Church in exchange for the Anglicans. :-)
