King George V Officially Opens the Iconic Tyne Bridge in Newcastle-upon-Tyne, 1928 This historic photograph captures the moment when King George V, the fifth monarch of the United Kingdom, officially opens the new Tyne Bridge in Newcastle-upon-Tyne on April 10, 1928. The King, dressed in full regalia, sits atop his horse-drawn carriage, waving to the cheering crowds that have gathered along the banks of the River Tyne to witness the grand occasion. The Tyne Bridge, an engineering marvel of the 1920s, is a steel arch structure that spans the River Tyne and connects Newcastle upon Tyne with Gateshead. Its distinctive design, with its elegant arches and suspension cables, has made it an iconic symbol of the region and a popular tourist attraction. The opening ceremony was a grand affair, with a procession of dignitaries, military personnel, and local notables making their way across the bridge. The King, accompanied by the Duchess of York, was greeted on the Gateshead side by the Mayor of Newcastle and the Mayor of Gateshead. After cutting the ribbon, the King drove his carriage across the bridge, marking its official opening. The photograph captures the excitement and anticipation of the crowd as they watch the historic moment unfold. The horses in the procession, their coats glistening in the sun, add to the sense of grandeur and pageantry. The Tyne Bridge, which had been a source of pride and inspiration for the people of Newcastle and Gateshead, was now a reality, and the future looked bright as the region entered a new era of prosperity and progress.
