Fun fact. I live here! This is King Street in South Shields, England.
Funnier fact: at the time this image was taken, there were 2 more Gregg’s within half a mile.
They don’t all exist now, but I highlighted the locations of the 4 Gregg’s with green dots.
There are also videos of a local seagull who likes nicking crisps from there 😂
The long story short is: we bloody love Gregg’s here.
Nowadays, there’s a new bus/metro interchange just behind King Street, and guess what’s inside it? Yep! A bloody Gregg’s! Just where that big yellow M is on the map is the newest Gregg’s 👍
I checked and found the expected Bright House just below the Un in Union Alley.
Could even say one is New Gregg and the other is Old Gregg
So true
Simple as.
