 | | "This important seaport is situated on the south bank of the Tyne, at its confluence with the German Ocean, at the north-eastern extremity of the county, and is opposite to North Shields, 9 miles from Newcastle-on-Tyne, 18 1/2 miles north-north-east from Durham, 6 miles from Sunderland, and 276 miles north-north-west from London. |
 | | South Shields has arisen in modern times from an insignificant village, consisting mainly of a few fisherman's huts, to an important and thriving seaport. |
