About the area

Blaydon

Blaydon-on-Tyne, on the south bank of the Tyne west of Newcastle, was little more than scattered farms and cottages until the later eighteenth century, when industry began to transform it. Coal mining expanded rapidly from the early 1700s, with pits such as Hazard and Speculation at Low Shibdon linked to the river by wagonways, and this activity drew related industries into the town, including chemical and bottle works, brick and sanitary pipeware manufacturing, and engineering. Blaydon later became known for innovative industrial chemistry, including early production of petrol from coal, marketed locally as Blaydon Benzole. The town's lasting fame, however, comes from culture rather than industry: the song "Blaydon Races," written by local entertainer George Ridley in 1862, became a Tyneside anthem celebrating a day out from Newcastle to the Blaydon races, and it remains closely associated with regional identity, still sung at Newcastle United matches and marked by an annual road race along a version of the original route.

As coal mining declined through the mid-twentieth century, Blaydon's economy diversified into general engineering, manufacturing and retail. Today it functions as a busy local centre for the western Gateshead area, with a mix of shops, services and riverside business premises, and much of its housing dates from the terraced streets built for industrial workers through to later twentieth-century estates further out. Traces of its industrial past remain visible in the landscape around Blaydon Burn and along the riverside, now partly reclaimed as green space, while the town centre retains a workaday, unpretentious character shaped by its long history as a place people came to work rather than simply to live, and it continues to serve as a practical, well-connected base a short distance from Newcastle city centre.
