meeting of the waters the tyne rivers trust measure the whole tyne catchment as 2 936 km 2 1 134 square miles containing 4 399 km 2 733 miles of waterways 3 course edit north tyne edit the ordnance survey records the source of the north tyne river at grid reference ny 605974 4 at deadwater a few tens of metres short of the scottish border it flows southeast through the village of kielder before entering first bakethin reservoir and then kielder water both set within kielder forest it then passes by the village of bellingham before the river rede enters as a left bank tributary at redesmouth it passes hadrian s wall near chollerford before joining the south tyne near warden to the northwest of hexham a stone marker shows the source of the river north tyne south tyne edit the south tyne rises at tyne head on alston moor cumbria close to the sources of the tees and the wear initially it flows north through the north pennines area of outstanding natural beauty aonb enters northumberland downstream of alston and turns to the east as it approaches the town of haltwhistle paralleling hadrian s wall which lies to the north the river continues past redburn and haydon bridge to join the north tyne at warden this low level east west corridor through the pennines is referred to as the tyne gap 5 tyne edit from the confluence of the north and south tyne at warden the river flows east through northumberland by hexham corbridge and prudhoe and enters the county of tyne and wear to the east of wylam the river subsequently forms the boundary between newcastle upon tyne on the north bank and the borough of gateshead on the south bank for 13 miles 21 km in the course of which it flows under ten bridges to the east of gateshead and newcastle the tyne divides hebburn and jarrow on the south bank from walker and wallsend on the north bank forming the boundary between the boroughs of north tyneside and south tyneside the tyne tunnel runs under the river to link jarrow and wallsend and is roughly where the mouth of the river don forms finally the river flows between south shields and tynemouth into the north sea 2 geography edit thomas john taylor 1810 1861 6 theorised that the main course of the river anciently flowed through what is now team valley its outlet into the tidal river being by a waterfall at bill point in the area of bill quay 7 his theory was not far from the truth as there is evidence that prior to the last ice age the river wear once followed the current route of the lower river team and merged with the tyne at dunston ice diverted the course of the wear to its current location flowing east the course of the tyne and joining the north sea at sunderland 8 the river tyne is estimated to be around 30 million years old 9 islands aits in the tyne include broomhaugh island and gold island many of the aits that were once there are now gone due to dredging such as kings meadow clarenee islands or clarence sources differ little annie and ryton island conservation edit the conservation of the tyne has been handled by various bodies over the past 500 years conservation bodies have included newcastle trinity house 10 and the tyne improvement commission 10 the tyne improvement commission conservation was created by the river tyne improvement act 1850 13 14 vict c lxiii and lasted until 1968 10 the 1850 1950 era was the worst period for pollution of the river 10 the tyne improvement commission laid the foundations for what has become the modern day port of tyne 11 under the management of the tyne improvement commissioners over a period of the first 70 years the tyne was deepened from 6 to 30 ft 1 8 to 9 1 metres and had 150 million tonnes dredged from it 11 during these 70 years the two tyne piers were built 11 northumbrian tyne and albert docks were built 11 as well as the staithes at whitehill and dunston 11 this infrastructure enabled millions of tonnes of cargo to be handled by the port by 1910 11 the tidal river has been managed by the port of tyne authority since 1968 10 11 the river tyne has a charity dedicated to protecting and enhancing its waters and surrounding areas the tyne rivers trust established in 2004 is a community based organisation that works to improve habitat promote better understanding of the tyne catchment area and build the reputation of the tyne catchment as a place of environmental excellence 12 port of tyne edit main article port of tyne the river tyne at bill quay with its proximity to surrounding coalfields the tyne was a major route for the export of coal from the 13th century until the decline of the coal mining industry in north east england in the second half of the 20th century the largest coal staithes a structure for loading coal onto ships were located at dunston in gateshead hebburn and tyne dock south shields the wooden staithes at dunston built in 1890 have been preserved although they were partially destroyed by fire in 2006 and then a further fire in may 2020 means that the staithes is becoming more vulnerable to vandalism and would need extensive financing to preserve it and make it secure 13 in 2016 tyne dock south shields was still involved with coal importing 2 million tonnes of shipments a year the lower reaches of the tyne were in the late 19th and early 20th centuries one of the world s most important centres of shipbuilding and there are still shipyards in south shields and hebburn to the south of the river to support the shipbuilding and export industries of tyneside the lower reaches of the river were extensively remodelled during the second half of the 19th century with islands including kings meadow the largest removed and meanders in the river straightened name and etymology edit nothing definite is known of the origin of the designation tyne nor is the river known by that name until the saxon period tynemouth is recorded in anglo saxon as tinanmuðe probably dative case the vedra on the roman map of britain may be the tyne or the wear ptolemy s tína could be a misplaced reference to either this river or the tyne in east lothian 14 there is a theory that tīn was a word that meant river in the local celtic language or in a language spoken in england before the celts came compare tardebigge citation needed a supposed pre celtic root tei meaning to melt to flow has also been proposed as an etymological explanation of the tyne and similarly named rivers 15 as has a brittonic derivative of indo european teihx meaning to be dirty welsh tail manure 15 river crossings edit
