About

Hendon & Docks sits on the south bank of the River Wear where the river opens into a sequence of quays and basins. The area mixes residential streets with stretches of industrial waterfront and the active port terminal, which handles roll-on/roll-off traffic and bulk cargo. A riverside path runs along the quays, past mooring points and former ship repair yards, and links into the city centre on foot. Local streets step down to the water, meeting docks, sheds and cranes that mark the working shoreline.

The dock basins and slipways reflect a long history of shipbuilding and shipping, and traces of that past remain in the layout of quays and timber revetments. Small businesses operate from former dock buildings alongside modern logistics facilities. At low tide the riverbed reveals the line where quays were extended in the 19th and 20th centuries, and harbour equipment still in use sits close to housing and community amenities, giving the area a mix of practical waterfront activity and everyday urban life.
