(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)
The River Tyne in England is a river rising on Alston Moor, Cumbria (where it meets the Pennine Way).It flows through Alston, then skirts Hadrian's Wall at Haltwhistle, Bardon Mill, Haydon Bridge and Corbridge, Northumberland. It enters the county of Tyne and Wear at Prudhoe and continues through Blaydon, the seven bridges of Newcastle-upon-Tyne, then Gateshead and Jarrow to the Tyne Tunnel, and finally to Tynemouth and South Shields and the North Sea.
The Tyne was a major route for the export of coal from the thirteenth century until the decline of the coalfields of North East England in the second half of the twentieth century. Dramatic wooden staithes (a structure for loading coal onto ships) have been preserved at Dunston in Gateshead.
The lower reaches of the Tyne were in the late nineteenth and early twentieth century one of the world's most important centres of shipbuilding, and there are still major shipyards at Wallsend on the north of the river and Jarrow on the south.
To support the shipbuilding and export industries of Tyneside, the lower reaches of the river were extensively remodelled during the second half of the nineteenth century, with islands removed and bends in the course of the river straightened.
Blythe is a main inlet north of the Tyne. It is a commercial deep water port and home to the Royal Northumberland Yacht Club.
