WALLSEND | 4K Narrated Walking Tour | Let's Walk 2021
Join me for a walk around the historic Tyneside town of Wallsend, just a stone's throw from the big city of Newcastle, and world-famous as the point where the legendary Hadrian's Wall reached its end.
On our walk around Wallsend, we pass a number of interesting landmarks, including Segedunum Roman Fort & Visitor Centre, Swan Hunter Clock, Wallsend Metro Station, St. Luke's Church (Shipyard Church), Swan Hunter First World War Memorial, Swan Hunter Memorial Hall, The Forum Shopping Centre, Market Woman Statue, The Anson Pub, Wallsend Customer First Centre, the Buddle School, Richardson Dees Park, Wallsend Green, Wallsend Hall, and the Valley Gardens.
Thank you so much to the following sites for their help in my research of Wallsend:

How did the Roman site of Segedunum, Wallsend, transform the landscape?
This video is from https://www.futurelearn.com/courses/hadrians-wall ‘Hadrian's Wall: Life on the Roman Frontier’ is a free online course by the University of Newcastle available on FutureLearn.com
Every settlement, fort, milecastle, turret and section of curtain wall (on Hadrian's Wall) has its own history and that history runs on well beyond the Roman period.
This video, adapted from an original produced by Tyne and Wear Archives and Museums, reminds us of just how complex the story of single fort could be. It features the site of Segedunum, Wallsend, extensively excavated by the late Charles Daniels of Newcastle University, and subsequently by his PhD student, Nick Hodgson. In it you will see how the establishment of the fort transformed the landscape, but also how after the Roman per...

Wallsend's past seen together with modern-day

Places to see in ( Wallsend - UK )
Wallsend, historically Wallsend on Tyne, is a town in North Tyneside, Tyne and Wear, North East of England. Historically part of Northumberland, Wallsend derives its name as the location of the end of Hadrian's Wall. It has a population of 42,842 and lies 3 1⁄2 miles (5.6 kilometres) east of Newcastle City Centre. The population of the Wallsend ward of the North Tyneside Borough was at the 2011 census 10,304.
Wallsend has a history of shipbuilding and was the home of the Wigham Richardson shipyard, which later amalgamated to form Swan Hunter & Wigham Richardson, probably best known for building the RMS Mauretania. This express liner held the Blue Riband, for the fastest crossing of the Atlantic, for 22 years.
The town has expanded greatly in terms of h...

This video is from https://www.futurelearn.com/courses/hadrians-wall ‘Hadrian's Wall: Life on the Roman Frontier’ is a free online course by the University of Newcastle available on FutureLearn.com
Every settlement, fort, milecastle, turret and section of curtain wall (on Hadrian's Wall) has its own history and that history runs on well beyond the Roman period.
This video, adapted from an original produced by Tyne and Wear Archives and Museums, reminds us of just how complex the story of single fort could be. It features the site of Segedunum, Wallsend, extensively excavated by the late Charles Daniels of Newcastle University, and subsequently by his PhD student, Nick Hodgson. In it you will see how the establishment of the fort transformed the landscape, but also how after the Roman period, the landscape changed and subsumed the fort.
The video reminds us of the importance of the other archaeologies that succeed the Roman period. This is particularly the case with the Industrial Archaeology of Wallsend, which attests to rapid change from the eighteenth century onwards.
The original video may be seen in the excellent museum at Segedunum in Wallsend.

Places to see in ( Wallsend - UK )
Wallsend, historically Wallsend on Tyne, is a town in North Tyneside, Tyne and Wear, North East of England. Historically part of Northumberland, Wallsend derives its name as the location of the end of Hadrian's Wall. It has a population of 42,842 and lies 3 1⁄2 miles (5.6 kilometres) east of Newcastle City Centre. The population of the Wallsend ward of the North Tyneside Borough was at the 2011 census 10,304.
Wallsend has a history of shipbuilding and was the home of the Wigham Richardson shipyard, which later amalgamated to form Swan Hunter & Wigham Richardson, probably best known for building the RMS Mauretania. This express liner held the Blue Riband, for the fastest crossing of the Atlantic, for 22 years.
The town has expanded greatly in terms of housing since the end of World War II, and since the 1960s. Wallsend Town Centre—including the main shopping area known as the "Wallsend Forum"—is in fact to the west of the land covered by the town. To the north of this area lies the older estate of High Farm and the new estate of Hadrian Lodge. The town centre of Wallsend is separated from the eastern areas of the town by the Wallsend Burn, a stream running through a small glacial valley from north-west to south-east and through the Willington Gut into the River Tyne. To the east of the Burn is the old area of Holy Cross, which contains the ruins of a medieval church, the pre-war estate of Rosehill and the mainly post-war estate of Howdon. To the south of Howdon lies Willington Quay which, as it name suggests, once served shipping but which is now dominated by industry and housing. East Howdon forms a small enclave between Willington Quay and North Shields.
The town's principal thoroughfare and shopping street is the High Street. To the north of this street is Wallsend Green, the town's most picturesque area, consisting of large houses surrounding a green square. Behind the Green, where the Burn runs through the parkland of the Hall Grounds lies Wallsend Park, a traditional British municipal park, whose restoration has frequently been demanded by local residents and is planned with many improvements such as a skate and BMX park, better pathways, and a rebuilding of the Duffy Memorial Fountain. On Rheydt Avenue in Wallsend is Centurion Park Golf Club, previously named Wallsend Golf Club. It has 18 holes and a driving range.
The town is home to Wallsend Boys Club, an association football club, which has produced many famous players such as Alan Shearer, Lee Clark, Steve Watson, Peter Beardsley, Robbie Elliott, Mick Tait and Michael Carrick. It is also hometown and birthplace to internationally successful musician Sting, whose song All This Time refers to the Roman wall and fort. The musical The Last Ship, composed and written by Sting, is set in Wallsend.
( Wallsend - UK ) is well know as a tourist destination because of the variety of places you can enjoy while you are visiting Wallsend . Through a series of videos we will try to show you recommended places to visit in Wallsend - UK

When converted for Metro use, the unattractive station buildings were demolished, and the station was rebuilt in the standard Metro style.
Wallsend Metro station is unique as it is the only public facility in Britain which has signage in Latin.
This is a nod to its location near a Roman fort at the end of Hadrian's Wall, hence the name of Wallsend Station.
If you live in Scotland or Wales you would be very use to seeing bilingual signage.
However in England, It is one of the relatively few stations to have bilingual signage.
The others being , others being Southall (Punjabi), Hereford (Welsh), and St Pancras International, Ebbsfleet International and Ashford International (all French)
Let me know if you know of any other interesting Stations that we can feature in one of our videos.

The station was originally opened on 19 June 1839 by the Newcastle & North Shields Railway, and was reopened as a Tyne and Wear Metro station on 14 November 1982. When converted for Metro use, the unattractive station buildings were demolished, and the station was rebuilt in the standard Metro style.
Wallsend Metro station is unique as it is the only public facility in Britain which has signage in Latin.
This is a nod to its location near a Roman fort at the end of Hadrian's Wall, hence the name of Wallsend Station.
If you live in Scotland or Wales you would be very use to seeing bilingual signage.
However in England, It is one of the relatively few stations to have bilingual signage.
The others being , others being Southall (Punjabi), Hereford (Welsh), and St Pancras International, Ebbsfleet International and Ashford International (all French)
