Northumberland Coach and Harness Manufactory. Shown on Ordnance Survey second edition. John Matthews of Northumberland and Newcastle Society notes that the premises were owned by famous coachbuilders Atkinson and Philipson. The address of the premises was No. 27 Pilgrim Street but the garage ran back from Pilgrim Street to Erick Street (site now occupied by multi storey car park and Dex Garage). The company was established in 1794. There is a commemorative stone on the ground floor of Dex Garage (HER 12902) which says 'ESTABLISHED 1794 REBUILT 1839'. Perhaps it was rebuilt after a fire. The premises later became the garage of Hale and Company. This firm were responsible for the first passenger coach built for the Stockton and Darlington Railway. They advertised a steam powered horseless carriage built at Pilgrim Street in 1896. They also built four wheeled Broughton style horse drawn ambulances for the Metropolitan Asylums Board in 1876. These cost £87 each. Slide out stretchers cost extra.

Eating and Drinking Establishment
SITEDESC
Shown on Ordnance Survey second edition. Also known as Charlton's after the firm that took over in 1903. Rebuilt in 1938 because the building was 'out of date, congested at weekends and having no seated accommodation'. Renamed Joe Wilson's in 1983 after the composer of 'Keep Your Feet Still Geordie Hinny'. Wilson was landlord of the Adelaide from 1871 but barely stayed a year as 'the trials of a landlord from his customers were at times more than he could bear'. Wilson became a teetotaller, joining the Good Templars. Later in the C20 the pub was renamed the Stout Fiddler (another Irish theme pub). In 2013 it the King's Manor.
