About

North Shields ward lies along the north bank of the River Tyne, encompassing the historic Fish Quay and modern ferry terminals. The area's economy has long been connected to the river, with a working port and facilities for ship repair. Inland, the ward includes residential streets with Victorian terraces and local shopping precincts, serving the community's daily needs. The topography slopes upward from the riverside, offering views across the water towards South Shields.

The Fish Quay retains a core of original 19th-century buildings, housing pubs and seafood restaurants. Clifford's Fort, a scheduled monument, marks the site of a former coastal battery at the mouth of the river. A regular passenger ferry provides a direct link to South Shields, maintaining a centuries-old crossing point. The community is served by the Metro system at North Shields station, connecting it to Newcastle and the wider coast.
