Sunderland Riverside at the Ferry Landing
This plaque by the south shore of the Wear Estuary (part of the Old Sunderland Heritage Trail) records that this is the site of the Ferry Landing which was in use as a crossing as early as the 7th century. The fare was one old halfpenny from the 18th century right up until its closure in 1957.
