The North East region of England has a unique mix of natural & manmade landscapes, has been at the crossroads of 3 major cultures & has seen the massive growth of the industrial revolution in the 19th century followed by decline in the late 20th century. The natural beauty of the rolling hills of the Cheviots & its spectacular coastline provide tourists with a near-idyllic calm & sense of peace. This contrasts strongly with the shipyards, collieries, factories & petrochemical plants of the Tyne, Wear & Tees rivers. The North East has produced great scholars, industrialists, aristocrats & sportsmen.
