The Hope & Anchor, which is now known as Jackson’s Bar.

Another very common pub name this, and is one of the earliest on the road. A pub of this name has been situated here since at least the mid 1850s, part of what was called the “Catterick Buildings” which was probably a terrace of some sort. An Elizabeth Minto lived in lodgings here in 1872, and features in another post we've published by Dorothy Whittaker on a murder at the Ouseburn: https://www.northeastheritagelibrary.co.uk/post/serial-killer-strikes-in-ouseburn

Given it was one of the only pubs on the street, it hosted a swathe of different gatherings. Freemasons, crop auctions, Conservative meetings and death inquests all feature. The earliest references notes an appointment for St Peter's Lodge specifically - Lodge 706. They were likely named after the St Peter's area on the Quayside, near the Ouseburn.

The pub was rebuilt around the beginning of the 1890s, noted as being in a location surrounded by derelict old houses. The author in the Chronicle piece makes the age old observation of the new replacing the old, with “only thirty years ago green fields extending the whole district”.

The pub changed its name to Jackson's around the beginning of the 1990s. It later gained notoriety as the scene of a shooting involving David Roche, the former Newcastle United midfielder and Wallsend Boys Club player, in 1995. He had been drinking in the pub after a funeral, and was shot after a pub fight. He had been banned from entering Newcastle but received special dispensation for the funeral.
