Ouseburn Valley was once one of the most important industrial areas in the North East. In the late 1800s and early 1900s, the valley was packed with flour mills, glassworks, iron foundries, and boatyards, all powered by the Ouseburn stream as it flowed down into the River Tyne.

Gateshead Through Changing Times... From the late 1960s to the mid-1980s - when the skyline began to change, old streets made way for new roads, and a new chapter in Gateshead's story was beginning. #RiverTyneTimeMachine2 #OldGateshead #GatesheadHistory

Dunston wasn't just a place on the map. It was smoke rising before dawn. Boots on cobbles. Factory whistles calling streets to life. In the early 1900s, life here was hard but it was honest. #RiverTyneTimeMachine2 #Dunston #DunstonStaiths #TheDunstonRocket #RiverTyne

A glimpse of Newcastle upon Tyne in the early 20th century - When trams rattled along cobbled streets, traders filled the markets, and the River Tyne powered a proud working city. #NewcastleUponTyne #OldNewcastle #NewcastleHistory #RiverTyne #RiverTyneTimeMachine #RTTM2

What did you call the head lice nurse at school? Personally: I called her the Dickie Nurse. Remember the dread of standing in line at school waiting to be inspected... hoping you weren't the one who got sent home with the dreaded nit #RiverTyneTimeMachine2 #headlice #nitnurse

South Shields Early 20th Century A town of shipyards and seafarers... of market traders and working streets. Where children played beside the river . #SouthShields #RiverTyneTimeMachine2 #NorthEastHistory #NorthEastMemories #TyneAndWear

“Wallsend… Where History Never Left.” From Roman soldiers guarding the end of Hadrian’s Wall, to the shipyards, the streets, the shops and the people who made this town what it is today. A place full of memories… and stories still being told.#rivertynetimemachine2 #wallsend

Old Walker Remembered... From the early 1900s through to the mid-1960s — when the River Tyne powered daily life and the shipyards along Walker's banks shaped generations of families. #rttm2 #rivertynetimemachine2 #walker

Old Gateshead Remembered... From the early 1900s to the 1960s - a time of shipyards, factories and bustling streets, when the River Tyne powered the town and life revolved around hard work, strong communities and local pride. Factory whistles echoed across the river. #rttm2

Beneath the arches of Tyne Dock, South Shields once moved to the sound of industry. Freight trains thundered overhead. #rivertynetimemachine2

Back to Early 20th Century Wallsend. Before the traffic lights. Before the bypass. Trams rattling through cobbled streets. And a river that carried the world. #RiverTyneTimeMachine2 #RTTM2 #Wallsend #OldWallsend #RiverTyne #TyneBuilt #NorthEastEngland

WESTGATE ROAD The Biker Years - 1960s & Beyond Caption: Westgate Road. It began with tramlines and cobbles.. Flat caps. Factory whistles. Corner shops on every stretch. But the soundtrack of the street was changing. Steel wheels became spokes. Steam faded into petrol fumes.
