Twenty-First Century Wear

The view is of the River Wear at Deptford, Sunderland, looking across to the former site of Wearmouth Colliery and terraced houses, pubs and allotments at Southwick. The former Laing's shipyard is now the site of Liebherr. The river is quiet, nature is returning but there is a yearning in Sunderland for the bustle of industry which made the town famous and proud.
