Description: | As there are no bridges over the river between Newcastle and Gateshead and the mouth of the Tyne, people had to walk 2½ miles up river to use the bridge. The alternative was to use the ferry from the boat landing at Felling Shore. The ferries continued into the 20th century as is shown by this photograph dated 1907. | Format: | image/jpeg | License: | http://www.asaplive.com/Lco/Lco.cfm?ccs=629&cs=2674&Preview=1 | Publisher: | Gateshead Council | Rights holder: | Gateshead Council | Subjects: | Ferries | Temporal: | name=Edwardian; start=1901; end=1910; | Source: | iSee Gateshead | Creator: | Unknown | Identifier: | http://isee.gateshead.gov.uk/detail.php?... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | image/jpeg | Go to resource |
