It shares borders with all four other boroughs in the area: Gateshead to the west, Sunderland to the south, North Tyneside to the north, and Newcastle upon Tyne to the northwest. Northumberland is just a bit further north. This borough came into existence on April 1, 1974, when the County Borough of South Shields merged with the municipal borough of Jarrow and the urban districts of Boldon and Hebburn from County Durham. As part of the Tyneside conurbation, which is the sixth largest in the UK, South Tyneside covers an area of 24.88 square miles (64.4 km²) and had an estimated population of 153,700 in mid-2010, with the 2011 Census recording 148,127 residents. To the east, it faces the North Sea, and to the north, it’s bordered by the River Tyne. There’s also a Green Belt stretching 9.13 square miles (23.6 km²) along its southern edge. The main hub and largest town in the area is South Shields, with other riverside towns like Jarrow and Hebburn nearby. The villages of Cleadon, Whitburn, and The Boldons are located along the South Tyneside green belt, while Sunderland lies to the south. In terms of representation, South Tyneside has two Members of Parliament covering two constituencies: South Shields (which includes Whitburn) and Jarrow and Gateshead East (which also represents Hebburn, the surrounding villages, and parts of Gateshead).
