I'm not sure that this street is Third Street. I was born in Horden and lived in Third Street and think that this looks at bit more like Fifth Street

Possibly Third Street from near the back of the Empress?

Yes its the top end of Third Street, the chippy is still there and still in the same family. The first shop on the photograph was a bakers Creggs I think. All I know is my ma would send me there for breakfast. Warm fresh Tea Cakes and Butter. The butter came as one large block and the assistant cut off what you wanted. Yum Yum. In the distance the White building was a pub the Northeastern I think.
