Swan Hunters, Wallsend
I live a mile away from the world famous Swan Hunter Ship Yard once the best ship building yard in the world until closure in 2006. When I was at school in the mid 80’s you couldn’t get moved in Wallsend for the thousands of workers from Swans going for lunch in the town. The town was always busy and booming with the ship building industry but sadly now its dead with the town full of vape shops and secondhand shops. This site is now being developed for the offshore wind industry.
