Hadrians Wall 28/7 Heddon on the Wall - Newcastle Quays Day 5

 


A straightforward 10 miles mostly on tarmac following the Tyne. Navigation easy, and the weather was fine which was a real treat after yesterday.





Scotswood on the outskirts of Newcastle
The statue is called 'Yesterday Today Forever'. It is a symbol of hope for the future in this former mining community.

Newcastle Quayside.







A great feeling to finish another long distance trail. I ended up with four hours in Newcastle a s I had an advanced ticket at 5:30 back to Derby.
