About Fencing in Blaydon-on-Tyne

Blaydon sits on the south bank of the Tyne, immortalised in the folk song Blaydon Races, first performed at a Newcastle pub in 1862 after the annual race meeting moved to an island in the river near the town. The area grew through coal mining and heavy industry, and today is a mostly residential part of Gateshead borough with easy access into Newcastle.

Types of Materials found in Blaydon-on-Tyne

Blaydon sits within the Durham and Northumberland Coalfield, where Coal Measures sandstone, shale and coal seams lie beneath the town, extensively mined during its industrial history. Above this bedrock, most residential ground is glacial boulder clay, common across the wider Tyneside area, which holds water and can drain slowly after sustained rain. Ground closer to the River Tyne itself can include softer alluvial deposits and, given the area's industrial past, some historically made up land near former colliery and works sites.
