HC Deb 10 May 2004 vol 421 c11W
Mr. Alan Campbell

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport what plans he has for the former coastguard station at Tynemouth. [170409]

Mr. Caborn

I have been asked to reply.

As part of a general audit of its property portfolio, English Heritage has been reviewing the operation of Tynemouth Priory. They will shortly be carrying out an options appraisal on the future use of the former coastguard station within the Priory grounds. The views of the local community will be taken into account in this appraisal.
