EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling North Shields Fish Quay, a vibrant town nestled near the mouth of England's majestic River Tyne. Dating back to approximately 1885, this image showcases the thriving docks and fishing fleet that once defined this historic location. As we gaze upon this snapshot from the past, we are transported to an era when sailing ships gracefully dotted the river's horizon. The sight of these magnificent vessels evokes a sense of adventure and exploration that was synonymous with maritime life during the late 19th century. The composition captures not only the grandeur of North Shields' industrial landscape but also its undeniable charm. The quaint buildings lining the quay stand as a testament to a bygone era when fishing was at its peak in this region. It is fascinating to imagine how these structures played host to countless fishermen who braved treacherous waters in search of their daily catch. This photograph from Memory Lane Prints offers us a glimpse into history, allowing us to appreciate both the resilience and ingenuity of those who called North Shields home during this time period. It serves as a poignant reminder of our connection with our maritime heritage and invites us to reflect on how much has changed since then.
