The Skirl of the Tyne
The North Tyne rises from Deadwater Fell near the Scottish Border and the South Tyne rises on Alston Moor in Cumbria. They finally merge at Warden Rock to form the River Tyne. Along the banks of this historic river whispered legends of mighty giants, witchcraft, curses and even the mythical Wild Hunt. In more modern times, great machines burrowed deep into the ground to extract the high grade coal to fuel great northern industry and to feed the south with winter fuel.
As the years passed, the cranes fell silent on the docks and the machines ceased digging in the dark places, but the songs and the legends live on in the poems and songs of the north.
