Geocache Description:


North Shields Fish Quay is located approximately 1km from the mouth of the River Tyne on its northern bank.

Its origins date back to 1225 when a small settlement grew up around the mouth of the river at Tynemouth monastery.

This settlement housed the fishermen who supplied the monks and lived in the 'shiel' huts from which the towns of North and South Shields derive their names.

Today it is the main fishing quay on the River Tyne and the biggest prawn port in England.

North Shields Fish Quay is not one but a series of quays surrounding a central harbour known as the Gut. The neighbourhood is mainly commercial, dominated by the fish catching, processing and merchanting industry, with other traditional small and medium-sized industrial and commercial operations.
