Newcastle-upon-Tyne’s iconic Tyne Bridge has been ranked among the most Instagrammable bridges in the UK.

The structure, built over the River Tyne, was ranked fourth in the UK for most Instagram posts relating to the infamous North East structure.

New research from Compare the Market collected Instagram posts relating to the areas and catalogued them.

The iconic bridge was ranked in fourth out of every bridge in the UK for most Instagrammable

Tyne Bridge was marked in the fourth-place position, narrowly losing out on a top-three finish to London’s Millenium Bridge.

A total of 101,937 Instagram posts were collected relating to Tyne Bridge, more than half of Edinburgh’s Forth Bridge (49,513) and London’s Albert Bridge (46,689).

The high number of Instagram posts ranked Tyne Bridge above Hull’s Humber Bridge (64,796) and Bristol’s Clifton Suspension Bridge (88,783).

Despite over 100,000 posts, it wasn’t enough to secure Tyne Bridge a top spot finish.

Instead, London’s Tower Bridge finished in the top spot and miles ahead of the rest, with an impressive 2,601,739 posts on Instagram relating to the bridge.

Comments from the research collated by Compare the Market said: “Almost 100 years after it was built, the bridge is still considered a defining symbol of Tyneside.”
