WE looked back at how the streets of Tynedale have changed over the years. 

A series of photos by Elliott Bros captured Northumberland Fusiliers at Hexham Queen's Hall on Beaumont Street, during the first weeks of World War I in 1914.

Hexham Local History Society have produced timelines about how Hexham has changed over the years.

In 1953, the Society reports there was a cholera outbreak in town and a public health report by Robert Rawlinson criticised Hexham's living conditions.

From 1919 to 1935, the Society says slums were cleared from Gilesgate, Haugh Lane, St Mary’s Wynd, Battle Hill and near Fore Street.

In 1939, an emergency hospital was built for those wounded by war.

The emergency hospital was built on Corbridge Road. In 1948, it became Hexham General Hospital and buildings were used until their demolition in 2003.

The Hexham Abbey Festival began in 1952, which is now one of the UK's oldest music festivals.
