Newburn, Newburn is a Semi Rural Village, Parish, Electoral Ward and Former Urban District in Western Tyne and Wear, North East England. Situated on the Banks of the River Tyne, It is Built Rising Up the Valley from the River. Historically, the Town Was Larger Than Newcastle Upon Tyne As It Was the Most Eastern Fordable Point of the River Tyne. The Area Has Roman Remains, and a Norman Church Dating from 1070 Ad. In 1640, the Battle of Newburn Took Place. The Village Grew with the Industrial Revolution with the Discovery of Coal, and in 1822 Spencer's Steelworks Was Opened, which Grew to a Size which Led the Village to Be Known Colloquially As New Sheffield, after the Town Famed for Its Steel Making Prowess. The Town's Steelworks Fell Into Decline after the First World War. UK
