Worswick Street Bus Station, X2, 520,521,522,524 to South Shields, 523 to Luke's Lane, 525, 526, 527 to Marsden, 528 to Seaburn.
Marlborough Crescent (now stands the Centre for Life) 529 to South Shields 
Eldon Square 533 to South Shields 
Ridley Place (Side of City Hall/Baths) for a short while was the 533 to South Shields.

Don't think 532 ever went from Eldon Square, after Woswick Street closed down, it departed from Market Street Police Station whilst the 527 oddly terminated at Central Station.
