A LANDLADY is appealing to Advertiser readers to help her trace the history of her pub.
Mandie Swales, who has run The North Eastern in Clarence Street, Spennymoor, for the past four years, has just held a party to celebrate its 100th birthday.
Mandie said: "The pub has been here for all those years and is part of the community."
"There were about 100 people here for the party and it was absolutely brilliant."
Locals told Mandie that The North Eastern, owned by Pubmaster, was built on the site of another pub that burned down. The original pub was built in the days when the railway used to run through Spennymoor. Now she is keen to hear more about its history or its characters. She can be contacted on (01388) 810395.
