About This Event
Steve Gore, a scuba diver of more than 30 years who now lives in North Shields, makes his first appearance at the Old Low Light with a talk on the shipwrecks of the coast between Blyth and Sunderland. He covers ships lost on the Black Middens at the mouth of the Tyne, the very hazard the Old Low Light and Old High Light were built to guide vessels past, and shares stories from wrecks he has dived himself. Tickets are £5, with members paying half price.
