Harton Village Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

Dalesman: This cache has been in need of care and maintenance for some time and as the owner has not repaired it I am archiving it.

Guidelines:[i] "You are responsible for occasional visits to your cache to maintain proper working order, especially when someone reports a problem with the cache (missing, damaged, wet, etc.). You may temporarily disable your cache to let others know not to search for it until you have a chance to fix the problem. This feature is to allow you a reasonable amount of time - normally a few weeks - in which to check on your cache. If a cache is not being maintained, or has been temporarily disabled for an unreasonable length of time, we may archive the listing."[/i]

Geocache Description:

This is a magnetic cache. The surrounding area can get busy with muggles so be careful you dont get seen.

In the early days South Shields was a fishing village with Harton and Westoe being agricultural areas, as seen in the photo of Moor Lane in 1880.

Harton village is about 2 miles south of South Shields centre and in the early 1900's was still unaffected by the spread of South Shields, unlike Westoe village to the north which by this time was connected. It wasn't until 1921 that Harton became part of the borough.

St Peter's church which can be seen in the photograph was built in 1867 from the stone quarried at Cleadon Hills.
