Elswick

Elswick, a township adjoining Newcastle, chiefly noted as being the spot where the great engineering and ordnance works of Armstrong, Mitchell and Co. are situated. These occupy an area of 125 acres, and have a mile of river frontage, and at times employ as many as 14,000 people. Elswick Park is now a recreation ground.
