James A Mcmurchie Quality butcher, who for years had been trading in Haswell, now moved to Hetton-le-Hole utilising the old public house The Caroline.
A lot of work was needed to bring the building up to standard but this was carried out and the shop opened and is giving great service to not only the people of Hetton but bringing trade from other areas as these shoppers are also using some of the other shops in the town.
