EDITORS COMMENTS
This aerial photograph, EPW020191 from the Historic England Archive, offers a breathtaking view of The Tyne Dock in South Shields, South Tyneside, as it appeared in December 1927. Taken by the renowned Aerofilms Ltd, this image provides a unique perspective of the bustling maritime scene at the time. The Tyne Dock, a significant port and harbour on the north east coast of England, is prominently featured in the photograph. The dock, with its intricate network of quays and jetties, is a testament to the area's rich maritime history. Ships of various sizes and types are anchored in the dock, their masts and rigging creating an intricate pattern against the calm waters of the River Tyne. The photograph also reveals the industrial activity that thrived in and around the dock. Smoke stacks from factories and power stations can be seen in the background, while cranes and other machinery dot the landscape. The presence of these industries underscores the economic importance of the port and the role it played in the region's industrial development. The Tyne Bridge, a iconic landmark of the North East, can be seen in the distance, connecting South Shields to Newcastle upon Tyne. The bridge, which opened in 1928, was a major engineering feat of its time and remains an enduring symbol of the region's industrial heritage. This photograph provides a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a window into the maritime, industrial, and historical significance of The Tyne Dock in South Shields during the late 1920s.
