    3. Hi again Sandy, Go to the Durham County Council website link below (Sunderland was once part of County Durham until someone came up with the bright idea of changing the political map and creating the romantic-sounding 'Tyne and Wear'!). http://www.durham.gov.uk/durhamcc/usp.nsf/pws/gis+-+online+mapping You need to click on the 'Launch the GIS now' box... Then click using the zoom (+) tool on the 'N' in the placename WASHINGTON... Then click with the same zoom tool four times on the placename HENDON... Roughly in the centre of the map you will see the number 56 in blue... click with the zoom tool on that... Now click with the zoom tool on the road called ROBINSON TERRACE... Click on the same area again and you will see the Raich Carter Leisure Centre. Just above this is Lewis Crescent. Now travel back in time using the box marked 'Current Day' to 'Circa 1951-1959' and you should see FOWLER TERRACE. Any problems following all this, just drop me an e-mail. Regards... David Allan.
