Image taken August 2023<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">This Grade II listed building was originally the Sunderland home of the Lambton family in the 1790\u2019s. When the Wearmouth Bridge was completed in 1796 it was converted into a coaching inn and renamed The Bridge Hotel. After the landlord was murdered in 1998 the pub didn&#8217;t reopen. It is now called Lambton House,<br>  During our photography session we met who turned out to be the owner who announced he would be applying for planning permission from the City Council to turn the ground floor into a pub again. The planning application succeeded and was approved on October.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/heritagepubs.sst.camra.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bridhe-Hotel-KP-4-1-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11421\" style=\"aspect-ratio:1.7777777777777777;width:540px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/heritagepubs.sst.camra.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bridhe-Hotel-KP-4-1-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/heritagepubs.sst.camra.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bridhe-Hotel-KP-4-1-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/heritagepubs.sst.camra.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bridhe-Hotel-KP-4-1-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/heritagepubs.sst.camra.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bridhe-Hotel-KP-4-1-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/heritagepubs.sst.camra.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bridhe-Hotel-KP-4-1-2048x1152.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><em>This shows the external tiling on one side, there is more on the front of the building.
