A fascinating and diverse collection of images from the author’s extensive photographic archive and other specially sourced pictures, recalling South Shields’ rich heritage both past and present.
You will be taken on a tour of South Shields, a town situated on the south bank of the River Tyne which is famous the world over for the fine ships it produced for almost a century, courtesy of the Palmer Empire. Some of the images will undoubtedly evoke powerful memories of yesteryear, while others will provide the younger generations among us with a link, not only to the past, but also to the vibrant spirit and sense of pride and community which has sustained the people of South Shields throughout change, poverty and of course the prosperous years.
