About Fencing in Newcastle upon Tyne

Newcastle upon Tyne grew from a Roman fort at the eastern end of Hadrian's Wall into one of England's great industrial cities, its skyline still defined by the dramatic bridges that cross the Tyne between Newcastle and Gateshead. The city centre mixes Victorian grandeur along Grey Street with more recent developments around the Quayside, and the wider city spreads through very different neighbourhoods, from dense inner terraces to leafier suburbs.

Types of Materials found in Newcastle upon Tyne

Newcastle sits where the underlying Coal Measures bedrock of sandstone, shale and coal, extensively mined through the city's industrial history, meets the Tyne valley itself. Much of the city's residential ground is glacial boulder clay, common across the wider North East, holding water and draining slowly after sustained rain. Closer to the river, glacial sands and gravels are found along the valley floor, while the eastern hills of neighbouring Gateshead sit on predominantly sandstone bedrock. Given the scale of historic coal mining beneath the city, some areas can have ground affected by old workings at depth, generally well below the level relevant to standard fence post footings.
