Description
Forge Hammer Public House. Open in the 1860s. Became the Tyne Iron Hotel and was rebuilt in 1937. The location of the Forge Hammer is assumed to be on the same site but is not certain. The Tyne Iron was bought from the trustees of Lord Rokeby by T & J Benard in 1954. The Tyne Iron was also known as the 'Hairy Man's'. There are many versions as to how the pub got its nickname but they all relate to the appearance of one of the landlords. Bus passengers from Newcastle who frequented the Tyne Iron were called 'Hairy's fairies' by Lemington residents. The Tyne Iron became the New Tyne Iron in 1990 and closed in 1996.

The Rokeby arms was run in the middle of the 1850s by Joseph Wren in conjunction with his butchery and grocery business. The property, like much of the area, was originally owned by the Lord Rokebys of Denton Hall who owned Montague Pit. The pub received a full licence and was aquired by Northumberland Hotels in 1947 when it was extended and altered. It was demolished in the late 1980s to make way for the western bypass.
