Memorial to Lost Fishermen , Sunday 24th September 2017.
« on: Wednesday 24 May 17 10:55 BST (UK) »
The North Shields Fishermen's Heritage Project (NSFHP) have been fundraising in order to have a lasting memorial created to honour the memory of lost fishermen.  They have now reached the £75,000 target.  (The last £2,000 was donated by the publicans of the Low Lights Tavern, Brewer's Bank, North Shields.  This is the oldest pub in North Shields and the only surviving proper fishermen's pub left.)

There will be an official ceremony during which the memorial will be revealed to the public.  The ceremony will take place on the foreshore at Clifford's Fort, North Shields on Sunday, 24 September 2017 between 11.30 am and 1 pm.

River Tyne Lass, I am relieved to know my photo of the Brixham statue to honour mariners lost at sea has been well received.
Entitled "Man and Boy" by Elizabeth Hadley, it was placed close to the RNLI station and unveiled late in 2016.
