Emerson Shephard opened a small shoe shop in Swinburne Street, Gateshead in 1906 and relocated to West Street in 1908. In that year, Shephard also opened his first branch in Dunston. By 1924, he owned several shoe shops in places around Gateshead in which he started to add drapery and household good departments. He extended his principal shop on the corner of West Street and Ellison street in Gateshead in 1934 to 30 departments. The building survived the second world war without a scratch, only to be completely destroyed by fire in 1946.
Shephard re-opened in less than two months in the former premises of a competing draper, Snowballs, a building known as Kent House in Church Street. He could return to a rebuilt store in 1949. The new department store was modernised, offering more services, including a better car park, a staff canteen and client toilets. It was not enough to survive in the long term. Photo: Shephards in West Street in 1980. Source In 1980, the store was re-branded Shopping City. It closed in 1986. The buiding was demolished to become Tesco’s parking.
