Silverlink Park Sundial
In 1996 work started on reclaiming the West Allotment Tip and the remains of the spoil heap from the former Backworth Colliery (Algernon Pit). The large mound at the centre of the park forms the highest ground in North Tyneside and provides panoramic views of the area. It is also the site of the Silverlink Sundial.

Path, Silverlink Biodiversity Park, Shiremoor
The Silverlink Biodiversity Park was created in 1996, on the site of a former rubbish tip, as part of a new business park development scheme. It covers an area of approximately 18 hectares and contains a variety of woodland, scrub and hedgerow, grassland and tall herb, wetland and exposed rock habitats. A giant sundial sits on top of a central hill which can be reached via a spider's web of footpaths. The park was declared a Local Nature Reserve in 2005. This path lies at the base of the central hill and leads to the steps which climb to the top of the hill.

Wildflowers, Silverlink Biodiversity Park, Shiremoor
The two predominant species in this stretch of path side meadow are Common Knapweed and Lady's Bedstraw. Common Knapweed, also known as Hardheads and Black Knapweed, is a firm favourite of pollinating insects, being a source of good quality nectar. As well as supporting bees, butterflies and beetles its seeds provide food for many birds. Lady's Bedstraw, when dried, has the scent of new-cut hay, and its name is probably derived from the tradition of stuffing straw mattresses with it, particularly those of women about to give birth.
