Dist:0.3km<br/>Little evidence remains of the Towneley Main Waggonway which brought coal from Stargate Pit to the River Tyne at Stella Staith (without an e). The plaque on this support for the waggonway does not refer to the mining heritage of the area but to Blaydon Races which were run on nearby Blaydon Island and Stella Haugh.
