Tynemouth, Northumberland - the Harbour, from the Priory, 1850. 'View...from the Priory walls, [showing] the harbour, with [John Graham] Lough's colossal statue of Lord Collingwood in the distance...Tynemouth, as its name plainly implies, lies at the mouth of the Tyne, where ships receive their cargoes from Newcastle. It is much frequented in the bathing season...The Castle, about one hundred yards west of the monastic ruins, is fitted up as barracks; and within its walls are a lighthouse and some modern buildings - the lighthouse lantern is 148 feet above the level of the sea...It has been supposed that the Romans had a post on the site of Tynemouth Castle'. From "Illustrated London News", 1850.
