Weir [NAT]

OS 1:2500 map, 1965.

This weir spans the River Tyne about 150m SW of Preston Mill, to which it presumably controlled the flow of water.

The location assigned to this record defines the mispoint of the structure. The available map evidence indicates that it extends from NT c. 59339 77772 to NT c. 59379 77815.
