Story of the Tyne
During museum opening hours



The River Tyne is one of Britain's most successful trading rivers and a powerhouse of the nation.



This gallery highlights some of the key industries that scatter the shores of the Tyne from the mouth of the river between Tynemouth and South Shields all the way up past Scotswood and Blaydon.



Displays include full size boats, a ship model wall, a model of the river as it flows from its source, and models of the important routes across the river.



With interactive pulleys, an exploration of the river wildlife and a movable model of the Swing Bridge.
