Raby Street was in the 'Egypt' area of Throston, Hartlepool off Milbank Crescent. The picture is taken from Milbank Crescent looking north. Frederic Street can be seen at the top of the street. The Raby Hotel with a Cameron's sign is in the middle of the street on the right. The pub closed in 1955, so the photo was well before that time. The street was probably demolished in the late 1950s or early 1960s.
This is one of a number of images believed to have been compiled by Hartlepool's Planning Department.
