EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this photograph of Broken Jetty, Tynemouth, South Shields, Tyne and Wear, circa 1900. This evocative image transports us to the Victorian and Edwardian eras, as we gaze upon the remnants of a once grand jetty, now broken and battered by the relentless waves of the North Sea. The jetty, which juts out into the sea, once served as a vital connection between the mainland and the small islands of Tynemouth and South Shields. However, the passage of time and the unforgiving sea have taken their toll, leaving only fragments of its former glory. In the distance, the iconic Tynemouth Lighthouse stands tall and proud, a beacon of safety and guidance for sailors navigating the treacherous waters of the Tyne and Wear. The lighthouse, with its distinctive red and white stripes, has been a landmark of the North East coast for over 150 years. The crashing waves, frothy white and churning, add a sense of drama and energy to the scene. The sky above is a mix of moody greys and blues, reflecting the ever-changing weather of the coast. The air is filled with the salty tang of the sea and the sound of gulls calling in the distance. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the power and beauty of nature, and the enduring allure of the coast. It invites us to reflect on the past and contemplate the passage of time, as we marvel at the resilience of the natural world and the enduring allure of the sea.
