Tyne Tees South Tyneside Council

Sonya Bullock from South Shields has had to move to a hotel over Christmas with her two-year-old son Hudson as her house is infested with flies.

Work has started today to move part of the A183 Coast Road 24 metres away from the clifftops to protect it from erosion.

The pub in East Street was subject to a routine food inspection prompted by an anonymous complaint of watering down of spirits.
