This building was added to the South Tyneside local list in 2023. The local list description reads:
'Located on the corner of Thornton Avenue and South Eldon Street. It was built in 1809 as the Plough in to cater for miners at the newly sunk Temple Town Colliery (sunk 1805). It became the Tyne Dock Hotel after 1841 under Thomas Turner. The side of the building has a plaque commemorating the buildings original building date “Temple Town 1809” It was bought by R S & D Crosthwaite in 1890 and tenders were advertised to rebuild it on the 12th February 1891. The architect was John M Dingle of 3 Ocean Road, who designed numerous houses’ shop and public building in South Shields including St Aidan's Parish Hall, St Thomas Sunday school and an extension to Barnes Road school. The pub would have been frequented by dock workers from the nearby Tyne Dock. Being about the lowest point in South Shields it is notorious for flooding.

Description
This site was added to the Gateshead local list in 2023. The local list description reads:
'At a bird's eye view at each end above the current Reception and Goods Entrance doors are two stones bearing the legend "AD 1932". It has been owned by the firm Data Processing Supplies (DPS) for at least 27 years. Its historical associations are a good deal more interesting, however, making it worthy of being added to Gateshead Council's list of Notable Buildings. As St Andrew’s Church Hall, it was begun in 1932. Its two foundation stones bear witness to this date. The stones above each of the two doors indicate completion of the building in 1932. The men named on the foundation stones of St Andrews House obviously had strong connections with Durham School, with its imposing old buildings on Quarryheads Lane, Durham, DH1 4SZ. Founded by the Bishop of Durham, Thomas Langley, in 1414, it received royal foundation by King Henry VIII in 1541.
Canon Richard Thomas Dutton Budworth, born 17 October 1867 at Greensted, Essex, died 7 December 1937 in London, was a very famous Headmaster of Durham School from 1907 until his retirement in 1932, then becoming a Canon at Durham Cathedral. He was replaced by Canon Harry Kenneth Luce in September. Prior to Durham, Budworth was at Clifton College, Bristol. He had attended Brecon College and Magdalen College Oxford. An international rugby player, he was selected for England while playing for Blackheath. His Grandfather was Revd. Philip Budworth who originally bought the manor of Greensted in 1837. The second gentleman Henry Shaw Harrison (Harry) was a son of Thomas Harrison, founder of Harrison & Harrison, the renowned Durham organ builders. Thomas established the firm in Rochdale in 1861 and moved the business to Durham in 1872. Harry was one of two brothers who took the firm to worldwide success. Harry was an Old Dunelmian (1883-1887) as was brother Arthur, and descendants.'
