Wallsend Iron Works. May have been served by wagonway (HER 1187). Owned by Palmer & Co. Had 2 furnaces.

Reservoir shown on 1st edition Ordnance Survey map.

Clay pit shown on 1st edition Ordnance Survey map.

Brick and tile works. By 1895 (2nd edn OS mapping) the site was partly occupied by Wallsend Works (SMR 2205). It appears that the Wallsend Works shown on 2nd edn OS mapping in an expansion of this site. In 1897 it was using a Porter's brick making machine, producing 75000 wire cut bricks a week. Output increased to 100000 a week with the installation of a Johnson's machine which used a semi-plastic process. The drying shed held up to 50000 bricks although they were dried outside during the summer. The brickworks had 7 kilns, it was owned by Mr R Wilson who also owned a brickworks at Birtley Grange.

Old Staith appears to be a placename on 1st edn OS mapping, but its riverside location suggests that it may actually be the site of an old staith. If so, it would have been out of use before 1858.

Walker Oil Works. 1st edn OS mapping shows a tramway from the works to the river.

Coxlodge Staiths, the southern end point of the Gosforth and Kenton Wagonway (SMR 1134).

Heaton Staiths, supplied by wagonway (SMR 2090).

A fan of waggonways running to staiths within Wallsend and serving a number of collieries including Fawdon. Shown on an un-sourced map of 1811 in Turnbull 2012 (route 17).

Wall Laws or Wallsend Colliery 1st edn OS mapping shows a shaft within the site. Wallsend Colliery (or Russell's Wallsend Colliery) opened in 1778 with the A Pit. B Pit followed in 1781. C and D Pits were sunk in 1786, E Pit in 1791 and F and G (Church) Pits in 1802. William Russell opened the colliery. Subsequent owners were Losh, Wilson and Bell & Co, then Wallsend and Hebburn Coal Company. There were many explosions at the colliery. The first recorded explosion was in 1783 when the pit was drowned to put out the fire. In 1785 B Pit exploded at the furnace and the pit had to be flooded again. Three separate explosions were blamed on unsafe steel-mills. The only light in the mine was mirror-reflected sunlight, only possible on sunny days. There were explosions in 1786, 1787 and 1803 which killed 26 people. In 1795 pillar robbing produced severe creep but in 1809 John Buddle, viewer had introduced successful panel work. In 1810 Buddle invented parallel-circuit ventilation. In 1821 an explosion killed 52 workers. 102 miners were killed at G or Church Pit on 18 June 1835. On 19 December 1838, 11 miners were killed. Wallsend Colliery closed in June 1854. In 1863 two pumping engines were placed at G Pit to drain and work Hebburn Colliery. H Shaft was sank next to G. In 1892 the Wallsend and Hebburn Coal Co. turned the H Shaft into its main pumping station and reopened Wallsend Colliery. G Pit was reopened. Rubbish which had been thrown in when it closed had to be removed by sinkers sent down on safety chains. The High Main was reached in May 1894. The floor had been squeezed up to the roof (creep). Coal was reached at the Low Main in July 1898 and from the Bensham Seam in 1900. The first Rising Sun shaft was sunk in 1906 and coal was drawn there in 1908. No. 2 shaft was completed in August 1915 and Rising Sun Colliery became independent of Wallsend G Pit. , and 5 on 9 August 1925.
