Further Information The Old Ferry Landing. At one time the ferry service took both car and
foot passengers across the river to North Shields. In 1999 a new
ferry landing was in place.  On the left is the Customs House, with
Readhead's shipyard beyond that.  On the left, in the distance, are
the quays and cranes of Tyne Dock.
