Hartlepool History Then & Now

St Matthew's Hall circa 1903

What we know about this image :

The image seems to have been taken from Powell Street or Bangor Street possibly as the houses were about to be built indicated by the terrain. On the left, the back of houses in Arncliffe Gardens can be seen. The wall on the right is the corner of a shop. However, the buildings to the right of St Matthew's are a mystery as no current buildings seem to have that roof shape.

Can anyone help ?
