The Blue Plaque Trail honours the WW1 dead of North Shields

A poignant memorial trail has been created for a North Shields community that suffered devastating losses in the First World War.  

Over 100 men from the streets between Linskill Terrace, Tynemouth Road and Park Avenue were either killed during the war of 1914-1918 or died later of their injuries.

Below are pictures of the members of deaf awareness:NE who took part in the trail on Saturday 18th May 2024.

The trail guide was Mr. Alan Fidler.
