Location

Ashington Sea Cadets are situated in one of two buildings on the north bank of the river Wansbeck, to the East of the Stakeford Road Bridge.

Sharing this stretch of the river with Cambois Rowing Club, we have been located on this site since our move in 1963 from Station Bridge in the Town Centre.
