About
About Tynemouth
Tynemouth () is a coastal town in the metropolitan borough of North Tyneside, in Tyne and Wear, England. Historically the easternmost town in Northumberland, it is located on the north side of the mouth of the River Tyne, hence its name.
Tynemouth grew up around the medieval priory and castle guarding the estuary of the Tyne. It was a port in its own right, vying with Newcastle for trade, though as ships outgrew it, it was more important for coastal defence. It has sandy beaches and developed as a seaside resort from the 19th century, while the area became industrial and a commuter town for Newcastle. In 2021 the population was 10,256, which includes North Shields. North Shields is a fishing port.
