SHIELS documentary (Alikivi 12mins 2014)

'Shiels' is a documentary about the shared history, tradition and connection between North and South Shields. The riverside of the two towns were almost mirror images of each other, with industry below and houses above, connected by steep winding stairs. People have been crossing the River Tyne by boat as long as there have been communities either side of the water, and over the years ferries have operated from landings at different points on the river.

The film also looks at the possibilities of closer co-operation between North and South Shields, similar to Newcastle - Gateshead.
