by Dick33 We normally fly to Gatwick it is quite cheap and fast but we found with the new Grand central train we could be in London in 3 hours and it was about the same cost as flying so we tried it out it was a lot faster because of all the hanging around in the airport and it was clean, spot on time and totally stress free, I won't fly again while this srevice runs.

For the restaurants at Navigation Point, turn right at the roundabout after Asda and follow the road down to the sea. You turn right just before the end and will find plenty of parking.

 Mabe in flight by Dick33 In Hartlepool we have mile upon mile of good clean beaches. This on is in the north part of the town just befor Crimdon Dean. The photo shows me, and Mable is in mid flight, it always makes me laugh. Leave a Comment Address: Speeding DriveDirections: Turn into speeding Drive off King Ozzy Drive walk under the railway line over the golf course and through the sand dunes and you are on the beach it isn't as far or as complicated as it sounds. Or just go to the Dean it is a little further up the coast.

Definitely the main attraction at the Historic Quay. You have to pay entry for the Historic Quay then pay again for the Trincomalee (because she's owned by a separate Trust), but if you're going to the Quay, it's well worth the extra. The HMS Trincomalee was built for the Royal Navy in 1817, but just missed the Napoleonic Wars. It spent several years in storage, before being sent on 2 long voyages, then back into storage. It was saved from scrap by a man who trained sea-men. With his own ship destroyed, he purchased the Trincomalee. Eventually, it ended up being restored and looked after by a Trust who now keep it in the Historic Quay at Hartlepool. When you get on board, you are given these handsets which you type in a number at certain locations as you walk around to get a commentary. There isn't a lot of headroom and you can wear a hard-hat if you wish, so look out if you're taller than about 5 foot! The tour is excellent, and because the ship is afloat, if it's windy (like today) you still feel a bit of movement as she rolls! Leave a Comment Directions: Follow signs for the Historic Quay.

The historic quay is a replica of a quay from the Napoleonic era. There is a tour which runs on the hour lasting about 20 minutes through an exhibition giving an idea to life on board a ship of the time and various little places you can go into including a gunsmith's and naval architects office. On the same site, there is also a free museum of Hartlepool and the HMS Trincomalee (see separate entries). Leave a Comment

 The Quayside by steventilly Hartlepool Historic Quay is a replica of a working naval quay from the times of the Napoleonic Wars. It contains exhibits pertaining to the era and to the workings of the port, and this is done largely through having recreations of the various buildings that you would find there, such as the chandlers.

A frigate of the British Navy she was restired by apprentices at Hartlepool and is now permenently docked in the Historic Quay.

A whole array of artefacts and stories from the history of Hartlepool. It's bigger than it looks from the entrance and has the added advantage of being free! Leave a Comment Directions: Follow signs for the Historic Quay
