Fiddler's Green or the Fisherman's Memorial.
A "corten steel" statue, sculpted [welded] by Ray Lonsdale and unveiled in 2017. It was inspired by a photograph taken in 1961 and entitled "The Salt" and forms a memorial to Fishermen from North Shields, mainly those lost at sea, but also those who go to sea no more.

Note: the memorial wreaths & flowers on various benches.
