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.

Superb piece of narration and history. Many thanks for posting this. Keep up the good work!

[@stephenthompson6982]

Beautifully narrated.

The words "new sculpture" don't usually fill me with anticipation but that centurion is rather impressive. It's one of these situations where the rust, or probably "patina" when it's a sculpture, actually 𝒂𝒅𝒅𝒔 to it's interest. The "Market Woman" is an unusual piece too and the first time I've seen two decent statues in one town. I only ever visited Wallsend the once, to a Working Mens' Club, and had no idea it was such a green, pleasant town.😁👍

[@dhlavelle]

Well done, thank you for great video

I haven't lived on Tyneside for over 20 years. I visited Wallsend literally last week and forgot how huge it actually is and how it sprawls from 'Middle Engine Lane' where the George Stephenson Railway Museum adjacent to New York Village/ North Shields and Battle Hill. It starts there then the 'Coast road' cuts it up then down all the way to the Tyne. Battle Hill Holy Cross High Farm Howden East Howden Willington Quay Roseburn Hadrian Park

[@mariemccann5895]

I think you have morphed several places into one, none of the places you mention are strictly speaking Wallsend itself.

The Anson had Kate Pierson from the B52s as a barmaid in the 1970s.

[@top40researcher31]

[@iainsanders4775]

What a revolting rusty old 'sculpture' - clearly the barbarians are now South of the Wall.

[@markbeale7390]

Beats angel of the north.
