1. Cow-on-Tyne

LOCATED: By the Tyne

Basically about the Tyne and whatever made Newcastle what it is today.

I like how in the book, 'Tyneside - A History of Newcastle and Gateshead from Earliest Times' 'Because of its serpentine shape, sea captains and keelmen knew the Tyne as 'The river dragon.'

I also like how the Tyne had a god with coal and salmon in its hair. As shown in the book 'Tyneside - A Biography By David Bean'
