Fellgate Urban

Sunday 14th May

Northern Navigators invite you to a classic urban event at Fellgate Estate near Jarrow, South Tyneside.
The area has been used once before and comprises a compact, complex, modern urban estate with no through traffic and many footpaths. It has an outer ring road with a few roads leading into the estate, but these are mostly cul-de-sacs serving the residents and are very quiet. The area is generally fairly flat with little or no discernible height climb, dropping about 10m from west to east.

Event Information

Travel
The area is located in South Tyneside and is approximately 1.5km NE of the end of the A194(M) at White Mare Pool. It is within easy access of both the A1(M) or the A19 and is best approached by vehicle via Hedworth on the east side of the estate. This is easily accessible off the A19, taking the first exit after Tesco supermarket (A19/A184) interchange when travelling from the south, or the second exit after the Tyne Tunnel when travelling from the north, signed Boldon Colliery.
The event will be ‘O’ signed from the traffic light junction on Hedworth Lane / Fellgate Avenue.
Fellgate Metro station is also adjacent to the estate and it is hoped that competitors will take advantage of this form of travel. For those not familiar with the area, the Metro is a rapid transit rail system that serves Tyneside and Wearside. Fellgate is on the Newcastle to South Hylton (green) loop.

Parking
Parking will be at the Hedworthfield Community Association parking area, grid ref. NZ329622, nearest post code NE32 4QD, ‘what3words’ – ///measure.newsreel.axed.
This is about a 5 minute walk from the metro station; after leaving the metro station, walk south along Durham Drive, turn right onto Cornhill (before the roundabout) and enter the gate leading into the Hedworthfield Community Association site. If travelling from Newcastle make your way down from the platform, turn left and go through the underpass beneath the line, follow the path south to the crossing on Durham Drive.

Registration
Registration / enquiries / download will be in a large white van, located in the Hedworthfield Community Association car park and will be open from 09:30 for enquiries, SI-card collection and EOD.
