In 1765, the Tyne Valley area was known as “The Landing”, as lumber floated up the Trout River from the shipyards at Bideford and Port Hill. The community was named Tyne Valley in 1868, after the River Tyne in England. At that time, the community’s economy was bustling, with a blacksmith, cheese factory, tannery, tailor, carriage shop, plasterer, shoemaker, grist mills, and saw mills. The area’s shipbuilding history is commemorated in nearby Green Park Provincial Park. This, in addition to a local theatre group and an annual folk music festival contribute to keeping Tyne Valley’s cultural life rich and vital.
Today Tyne Valley has many local business including a Credit Union, Liquor Store, hair salon. MacNeill’s Store, The Landing pub house and bar, Stewart Memorial Hospital, Murphy’s Tyne Valley Drug Store, Irving gas station, the Community Sports Complex, the fire hall, the post office, the Tyne Valley Public Library, and a community sports complex.
