Waterfront Apartments, Bell Street, North Shields
This piece of land in Bell Street, which at various times in the past had been home to the Blue Bell Inn, a number of garages and a workshop, had stood vacant for a number of years prior to the development of these apartments commencing in 2018. The plans originally included two commercial units to the ground floor although subsequently these were replaced by additional car parking with locally-inspired art fitted into the external walls.

The old, new High Light, North Shields
Built in 1808 to replace earlier lights. This and the Low Light nearer the river and Fish Quay were necessary to guide sailors into the Tyne before the river was dredged and the piers built to shelter the harbour. See Wiki for more information on the history; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_and_Low_Lights_of_North_Shields
No longer active and a nice house with a wonderful view. The two lights still assist vessels to take a daytime line of sight into the river.

High and Low Lights
The tall white tower in the foreground is the High Light. Mariners entering the piers line up the light with its twin Low Light down on the Fish Quay, this gives them a safe channel into the river.
