North Tyne [river] - Kitatain

…The Tyne River was called the Tyne River in Roman times.

The valley plain forms a rich agricultural area called the Tyne Corridor, and as it flows through the coalfields of northeastern England, the downstream area is lined with shipyards and steelworks, and the cities of Newcastle upon Tyne, South Shields, Tynemouth, and others form the Tyneside Industrial Area. …
