Sandstell Fishing Shiel
Heritage Open Day: The Fishing Shiel dates back to 1735 at this location on Sandstell Road in Spittal, Berwick-upon-Tweed. The building was originally thatched and it is divided into two separate rooms, being the base for the net fishing at Sandstell and Hallowstell on estuary of the River Tweed. As the local voluntary community group, Spittal Improvement Trust (SIT), aim to restore the building and turn it into a heritage museum depicting both the local salmon and herring fishing industries.
