I took a trip down the River Don in Jarrow then went down the Tyne and around Tyne Dock, this was on the 09/08/2009 this is the day before the closure of the dock as it is going to be filled off the spoil that is being dredged for the new Tyne Tunnel.% hours later at midnight the dock was offficially closed to all shipping for ever.
