Hebburn is a small town situated on the south bank of the River Tyne in Northeast England, sandwiched between the towns of Jarrow and Bill Quay. The population of Hebburn is around 19,000.

The first record of Hebburn mentions a settlement of fishermen’s huts in the 8th century, which were burned by the Vikings.

In the 14th century the landscape was dominated by a peel tower. A 4’6″ (140 cm) tall wall, a portion of which still remains at St. John’s Church, could also be seen.

Coal was mined in the area as early as the 17th century. Hebburn Colliery opened in 1792 and eventually operated 3 pits. It closed in 1931.

Hebburn also has proud shipbuilding history with many Royal Navy battle ships being built in the town.
