Having tried Stockton-on-Tees council depot (listed under Lancashire for some reason) I have been told they do all the work to the local taxis so you need to book at least 2 weeks in advance. My friend has had her MOT done there and said they were excellent though.

There's also South Shields, although I'm guessing Newcastle & Gateshead are more convenient for you.

S. Tyneside Council, Middlefields, Heddon Way, Tyne Dock, South Shields, NE34 0NT

Anyone know where the Council MOT centre is in Morpeth? The list just says Morpeth bit no address. Or any others in Northumberland?

chilton depot durham county council 01388 816166 (ask to be put through to workshop) they do public mot's

Do you have to live within the same council area as the centre? There's none in Darlington

But if i could use Stockton...

Mind you, would be stranded if it failed :rotfl:

You can use any.

Does anyone know where that Newington Road one is in Newcastle?

As far as I know, Newington Road is the one which runs along the bottom of the park next to Warwick Street (Sandyford/Shieldfield). I've had a look along there and can't see any garage.

Does Newington Road continue on the other side of the pedestrian walkway ... which I guess is accessed by the road near to Byker Morrisons/Byker Bridge?

Any directions would be handy.
