The River Tyne is formed by the confluence of the rivers North Tyne and South Tyne at Warden, near [[Hexham]], [[Northumberland]], in north-east [[Eangland]], and flows eastwards past the city of [[Newcastle upon Tyne]] and through the former industrial heartland of the [[Tyneside]] [[conurbation]] before entering the [[North Sea]] between [[Tynemouth]] and [[South Shields]].

The River North Tyne rises at Deadwater, on the Anglo-Scottish border, flowing past Kielder and into [[Kielder Water]], the largest man-made reservoir in Europe, formed in the 1970s by damming the North Tyne near Falstone, [[Northumberland]]. Issuing from the reservoir, the river flows past the small market town of [[Bellingham]] and the [[Roman]] cavalry fort at [[Chesters]], where [[Hadrian's Wall]] crossed the river on a bridge whose abutments are still visible, before joining the South Tyne at Warden.

The River South Tyne rises (as Black Burn) on [[Cross Fell]], [[Cumberland]], within a mile of the springs of two other major northern rivers - the [[River Tees]] and the [[River Eden]]. It flows northwards through [[Alston]], the highest market town in England, turning eastwards near [[Haltwhistle]] before meeting the North Tyne at Warden.
