The Changing Face
Of Wallsend
Progress
can be seen by the ongoing refurbishment of the Forum shopping
centre, the recent demolition and rebuilding of Burn
Closes Bridge that links Holy
Cross, Rosehill & Howdon to Wallsend town centre,
along with the building of the brand new multi-million pound
swimming
pool & fitness centre.
The huge
regeneration of Battle
Hill shopping precinct and the
massive planned
regeneration of Wallsend
Parks, East
Howdon & Willington Quay
including another tunnel linking the south side of the Tyne
to the North.
Though
progress seems slow for some Wallsenders, a
vast amount of new money has already being spent on the town
and its suburbs and the plans for the future will mean that
Wallsend will continue to change in the future.
