( not the) The old Borough Treasurer's Office

.

.
This fine looking building is on the corner of Howard Street and Charlotte Street in North Shields. At least part of it was once the old Borough Treasurer's Office. An estate agents premises spoils the frontage with a modern and out of character facade; the building also houses the Exchange Bistro. Since posting this , Novocastrian has helpfully pointed out it was the old police station ( see comments below). The Treasurers's office is on the extreme left.

North Shields Salvation Army Citadel

.

.
The Salvation Army Citadel on Howard Street in North Shields was designed by John Dobson in 1811. It was built originally for a Church which was established in 1759 by the Reverend Joseph Wilkinson. The original church was known as the Scotch Church because by deed the Minister had to be a licentate of the Church of Scotland.
