  • Bridges Over the Tyne Session Plan
    Bridges over the Tyne Session Plan There are seven bridges over the Tyne between central Newcastle and Gateshead but there have been a number of bridges in the past that do not exist anymore. However the oldest current bridge, still standing and crossing the Tyne is actually at Corbridge, built in 1674. Pon Aelius is the earliest known bridge. It dates from the Roman times and was built in the reign of the Roman Emperor Hadrian at the same time as Hadrian’s Wall around AD122. It was located where the Swing Bridge is now and would have been made of wood possibly with stone piers. It last- ed until the Roman withdrawal from Britain in the 5th century. Two altars can be seen in the Great North Museum to Neptune and Oceanus. They are thought to have been placed next to the bridge at the point where the river under the protection of Neptune met the tidal waters of the sea under the protection of Oceanus. The next known bridge was the Medieval Bridge. Built in the late 12th century, it was a stone arched bridge with huge piers. The bridge had shops, houses, a chapel and a prison on it. It had towers with gates a drawbridge and portcullis reflecting its military importance. The bridge collapsed during the great flood of 1771, after three days of heavy rain, with a loss of six lives. You can still see the remains of the bridge in the stone archways on both the Newcastle and Gateshead sides of the river where The Swing Bridge is today.

  • Bridgescape As an Assessment Tool in the Socio- Spatial and Visual Connections of the Central Urban Areas of Newcastle and Gateshead
    Special Issue, | Roadscape, 8(36) Bridgescape as an Assessment Tool in the Socio- spatial and Visual Connections of the Central Urban Areas of Newcastle and Gateshead Goran Erfani Abstract | Newcastle University, UK Growing roads and mobility have led to the formation of new landscape types: known bridgescape or bridge landscape. The social, [email protected] cultural, and visual impacts of bridges on their surroundings as drivers and symbols of the development have gained increasing significance in roadscape studies. This article aims to assess the role and design of bridges in the socio-spatial and visual connections of the central urban areas of Newcastle and Gateshead, located in North East England, by the criterion of the bridgescape. The findings of this article show that bridges are not only transitional passages; rather, they can be socio-spatial destinations for people to meet, do collective activities and improve their environmental perceptions. In urban milieu, landmarks have dissimilar impacts on visual connections and bridgescape. Characteristic and contrasting landmarks improve bridgescapes; however, corrupting landmarks have a destructive role in bridgescape. Keywords | Bridgescape (bridge landscape), Socio-Spatial Connections, Visual Connections. 32 No.36 Autumn 2016 Goran Erfani Introduction | Bridges are a vital element in ground from landscape architects to structural engineers. transportation networks, which connect cities, communities In North east England, the city of Newcastle-upon-Tyne, and even nations.

  • Virtual Reality Urban Modelling - an Overview

It provides a summary of cities worldwide where three-dimensional computer modelling is being utilised to aid urban planning. The study considers the need for a digital representation of cities and raises issues pertaining to advantages, barriers and ownership. A case study of a pilot project on the visualisation of Newcastle upon Tyne is examined to show an approach adopted for the representation of this city in North East England. The process of this visualisation is summarised and future research is outlined in relation to this city model.

  • Bridges Across the Tyne Transcript Season 2, Episode 1 Hello! Welcome Back to The
    Bridges Across the Tyne Transcript Season 2, Episode 1 Hello! Welcome back to the Time Pieces History Podcast and to season two. In this season, I’ll be exploring the North East of England, where my family is from and where I’ve lived for most of my life (I was actually born in York, so I’m not technically a Geordie!) We’ll be looking at some places you may be familiar with, but I’ve also tried to include some things that maybe not everyone has seen. If you’ve got a favourite place in the North, let me know. I’ll also be including a couple of bonus episodes at the end of the season. The two at the end of season one were specific to those working in the heritage industry, with tips on how to market your site during COVID19 lockdown. This season it’s going to be a bit different, as I’ll be bringing you some guest interviews. As always, you can find links and a transcript of today’s episode on my website – gudrunlauret.com and get in touch via Twitter - @GudrunLauret. Just before we start, I’d like to mention my first review, which has come via Apple Podcasts. Tiana WB has kindly rated the show five stars, saying “Excellent podcast with loads of interesting historical facts.” Thank you so much Tiana, for taking the time to review the show, and I’m delighted to hear that you’re enjoying it. Reviews are always very welcome. So, we’re going to start off this season by looking at one of the most recognised objects in the north of England, often used as shorthand for Newcastle upon Tyne, although of course its other end is in Gateshead, which is where my family are from.

The first section was budt for Lord Ravensworth and Partners and ran from Mount Moor Colliery at Black Fell ( south of Gateshead) to Springwell Colliery ( then being sunk ) and then on to new staithes on the River Tyne at Jarrow, a distance of 6.25 miles. As their engineer the Partners employed George Stephensorq though in riew of his commitments to the Stockton and Darlinglon Railway at the same time it is unlikely that he supewised its construction. Although the line was to use three rope-worked inclines for its first 2.25 miles , the last four to Jarrow were to be worked by tw'o locomotives, these almost certainly being the hrst two to be ordered from the famous locomotive builders Robert Stephenson & Company of Newcastle. tr{ou'ever their delivery was delayed and so the section from Springwell to Jarrow was opened using horses on lTth January 1826; the extension to Black fell followed about six months later. In May 1842 an extension to this line was opened to Kibblesworth Colliery, 2.5 miles further west on the opposite side of the Team Valley and comprised two more inclines.
