John Readhead & Sons was a shipyard on the River Tyne in South Shields , Tyne and Wear , England founded in 1865.
History [ edit ]
John Readhead and John Softley founded the business in 1865 in South Shields as Readhead and Softley.[1] collier called Unus .[1] Swan Hunter bought the company in 1967 after publication of the Geddes Report which recommended rationalisation of shipbuilding on the River Tyne.[2] nationalised with the rest of Swan Hunter in 1977. The yard at South Shields closed in 1984.[3]
