TYNE (The North), a river of Northumberland; rising in the debateable land at the boundary with Scotland; and running about 32 miles south-eastward, past Plashetts, Falstone, Bellingham, Wark, and Chollerton, to a confluence with the South Tyne, 1 mile WNW of Hexham. It receives many small tributaries above Bellingham; receives the Reed 2 miles below Bellingham; and is followed, down nearly all its course, by the Border Counties railway.
