About

Whitburn & Marsden occupy a stretch of coastline in South Tyneside, characterised by rugged cliffs and expansive beaches. The area includes Whitburn's village centre with local shops and services, while Marsden is noted for its proximity to a significant coastal limestone formation and caves. Residential streets spread inland from the shore, with housing ranging from historic cottages to modern developments.

The coastline here is dominated by a large, grassy headland that leads down to a sandy bay, which is sheltered by distinctive rock stacks. This bay is adjacent to a former quarry site, now a nature reserve. The area's geography is defined by its coastal paths, golf courses, and the persistent sound of the North Sea against the shore.
