    You need to do a vlog about the River Derwent. It comes out at the Tyne right next to the Team river. You were just a few hundred meters from it.
    Also the Dunston Staithes has enormous historical and cinematic film history (movie Get Carter).

    I've walked it, the hill you walked over that has the Causey Arch Pub and The Black Bull is man made and there is a tunnel which the river runs through it enters the tunnel as the Causey burn and leaves as the Beamish Burn. Additional when doing cross country at Tanfield Grammer we were required to run through the burn twice.

    Such a coincidence, I visited quite a lot of this last night on my bike. Beamish hall and along Beamish burn etc. At 15:21 your entering Elsington Park which was heavily landscaped for the 1990 Garden Festival and most of it is still visible today. They actually built a culvert here (still extant) for the festival so people, trains, elevated monorails could cross the river Team over into Norwood section of the festival which is now has a housing estate on - still displaying brick butterflies on the gable ends of the houses. There is talk about ripping this culvert back up though to alleviate future floods. Another interesting video Jordan, I learnt quite a few things, thanks :)

      I have the route as a online OS Map. Can’t post a link on RUclips but if you message me on Instagram or Twitter I can send it

    Born and bred in Dunston 1958 I remember the river team we called it the gut all the crap from the team valley all the sewage come out of the factory's straight into the river it used to stink in the summer

    The railway arch does not connect Newcastle to Dunston, that railway arch takes you into the Teams area, plus you are not in a city you are in the borough of Gateshead which does not have city status, once you crossed that bridge at 16:00 then you were entering Dunston, when you do these walks ask some of the locals where you are, the river Team used to be called the Gut at one time because all the rubbish from the factories used to get pumped into it and it stank in the summer.

    Where you started your journey was formally the Harperley hall, which at one point was a flour mill, then was a hotel and bar, for a time in the 70s it was a zoo

    A video of Ravensworth castle would be great, although you’d need permission as it’s on private land.

    Great research , I remember as a child the River Team running through the middle of the dual carriageway nearly the full length of the Ind Est ! It was about 5 mtrs lower than the road and covered over by square grip reinforcing bar and rose bushes growing over it to hide its existence. Not sure when it was fully enclosed ? sometime in the mid 60s I would guess

      At the top end of Kingsway from the Coal House Roundabout down to roughly where Barclays Bank is, the river does down the central reservation, grated over, allegedly with grapevines growing over it and I've seen folk harvesting, presumably grapes!

    I heard that River Wear explanation as well, and it’s clearly convincing looking at the topography. I may have heard it at a Geology lecture at uni. Which I had a better source than that (no pun intended) sorry

    Interesting video, but please stop putting music on your videos. Parts I can’t hear what your saying and I’d rather hear the ambiance of the places your in. Sometimes the music is so loud I have to turn the volume down and then I can’t hear what your saying. So please NO MUSIC!
