Hi,

does anyone have any idea what or where the occasional foghorn type noise comes from, it occurs around the newcastle quayside but it sounds like its coming from different places and if its a ship we cant for the life of us find it

It's actually a work of ''sound art'', believe it or not, and it comes from the Millenium Bridge. Read about it here.
Hi dicky1980

I believe that is the Tyne foghorn situated on the coast, at Tynemouth. There are three there. One slow low sounding, one slightly higher pitch low sanding and a bell. Believe it or not but the first horn I mentioned can be heard right up the Tyne past hexan. When she sounds the waves go right up the valley and along the water
Hi dicky1980

I believe that is the Tyne foghorn situated on the coast, at Tynemouth. There are three there. One slow low sounding, one slightly higher pitch low sanding and a bell. Believe it or not but the first horn I mentioned can be heard right up the Tyne past hexan. When she sounds the waves go right up the valley and along the water. If you have the ear for it of course. The beautiful sound of all three together is a song you always remember, if you've had the pleasure of growing up there. I hope you find this answer most helpful at solving the riddle
