HFF everyone - hope you are all keeping well and safe. A relatively new fence compared to the wall it sits on. I must research the building of this wall - it is massive and may have been built at the start of the shipbuilding industry on the banks of the River Tyne, Newcastle, NE England.

The sunlight through these catkins made the tree appear as a large fluffy pale green bush. They have had an amazing impact of the parks and walkways this Spring.

........view of the south side River Tyne, Gateshead. Ship repair and building was once a huge industry here. Very little remains today except the derelict docks and ships occasionally being refitted further downstream (left). HFF everyone, hope you are all keeping well.
