Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report Abstract:	A standing buildings survey and assessment of significance of a former Ministry of Defence Depot, south-east of Killingworth in North Tyneside. The site is one of two former World War II Anti-Aircraft Supply Depots within the Tyne and Wear area. The former MoD complex at Killingworth was originally built as a facility for servicing anti-aircraft batteries defending the conurbations, industry and airfields north of the River Tyne. It was built c.1938 and is one a relatively small number of known Emergency Equipment Ammunition Magazines (EEAM) constructed throughout the UK in anticipation of war with Germany. It originally had a dual function; to act as the primary local supply depot for ammunition used by ant-aircraft facilities in the area and to act as a centre for the storage and maintenance of the vehicles and armaments required by the batteries. Subsequent to the war the complex served as a depot for the maintenance of vehicles by the REME until 1976, and from 1979 until the mid-1990s the complex was used as a central store for the Area Health Authority. Many of the buildings of the complex were demolished or underwent alteration and modification during this period, and as the site has remained unused since the Area Health Authority vacated the premises the buildings have gradually fallen into disrepair.
