The Building
The Chain Locker was originally a malting house for one of the watering holes in the area, the building became a pub in 1904 and was known as the Crane Hotel until renamed The Chain Locker in 1986. There has been a brewery or inn on the site since the days when stage coaches took ship's passengers to and from Newcastle when the tide prevented sailing upriver. 15 apartments are now here, and the original 100-year-old building forms the centrepiece of a development.
