tynebridge

What a timeless scene. I hope these old buildings are still standing.

Most of the distant buildings have gone Alan. It was mostly warehousing and was rebuilt with flats and hidden car parking. There's also a new building at the mid way point which is Newcastle Crown Court. The ships and boats don't moor there now unless it's for special occasions such as the Tall Ships Race. This photo was taken at the end of a very hot summer in the UK. So bad that I had sun stroke! I reccommend a visit to the city if you're ever up this way - it's a fantastic mix of architecture, nightlife and very friendly people. It's also on the edge of Northumberland - a jewel in the UK and known for its castles and coastline.

All that activity on the river! A wonderful photograph.

The railways when we still had a lot of it left in the city.. Some things of note in this one are Dunston Power Station which is upstream of the Dunston Staithes. Stella power station cooling towers can be seen top of image (4 of them). We can also see the Metro bridge being constructed across the river. The old Redheugh Bridge is standing too - it would soon be replaced by the concrete one..

Brilliant!!!

Paul W L Jones Really glad you like them, there are plenty more to come.
