Excellent idea Jag
To the best of my knowledge you need a Pass from the Port of Blyth to park at the entrance to the pier as well as your normal Blue badge,i believe this is for security reasons,i asked a lad that was fishing one night who you had to contact as i was going to leave details on NESA however the lad could'nt remember the contact address,i'm almost certain the person that organised the pass lived at Whitley Bay or that area and was not a employee of the Port of Blyth.
I think alot of the time it depends who is manning the Gatehouse and rightly or wrongly sometimes turn a blind eye.
This pass may have been scrapped but may be worth looking into before planning a fishing trip and being turned away.
