NEHL - The first record of a tennis match at Mount Pleasant is in 1891, when Tudhoe came up against Seaton Carew Ladies at Mount Pleasant. The courts were of the lawn variety, so was likely an open plot field with the tennis net erected for the matches.

The lawn club appear to have been fairly successful, with the AGM reporting on the "flourishing club" and continued to have similar meetings for the next decade or so.

Unfortunately, no maps outwardly illustrate the grounds however it is likely to have stood on the south side of North Road. Multiple rectangular enclosures are illustrated, and the ground remains undeveloped after the tennis club folded by the 1910s.
