West Boat Bridge, N&CR

West Boat is a hamlet on the South Tyne a mile or so west of Hexham & few hundred yards west of the confluence of the North & South Tyne.   The Newcastle & Carlisle line crosses the South Tyne on a lattice girder bridge at West Boat.

Standing under the N&C bridge, looking east along the bankside
of the S Tyne, there is an embankment straight ahead
