Seaton Sluice can be described as a hamlet located in Northumberland, North East England.
Seaton Sluice stands on the ‘coast’ at mouth of ‘Seaton Burn’, i.e. mid-way between Blyth and Whitley Bay.
Seaton Sluice goes on to lie at an approximate distance of around half a mile on the northern side of hamlet of Hartley. It was once upon a time, a portion of it. ‘Hartley Pans’ was the name given to it then; the reason being salt pans which had been used for preparing salt. This practice was as old as the early 12th century. The scenario was such that Hartley had been looked upon as a region stretching between Brier Dene Burn and Seaton burn; that had belonged to Tynemouth Priory.
Before 1550, salt manufactured at ‘Hartley Pans’ used to be transported for being exported. However,thereafter, it got shipped on the direct basis from the petite, natural harbor.
The population of Seaton Sluice has been estimated to be around 4000.
