A Newcastle builder unveiled plans in July 1966 to convert disused shipping chambers on the corner of Surtees and George Streets into a night club, discotheque, jazz cellar and restaurant at a cost of £40,000. Plans were passed and the club opened early the following year as The Collingwood Club.
It was a club for a number of years and the building still exists.
