The project is appealing for stories of those who worked in World War One shipyards.
The "neglected" history of women involved in the shipbuilding industry is being documented in an exhibition.
Shipyards including Swan Hunters in Wallsend, Palmers in Hebburn, and at Haverton Hill on Teesside all took on women workers.Local people are being invited to contribute their own family stories, photographs and memorabilia to the Women in Shipbuilding project, which has used photographs from the Imperial War Museum for the exhibition.
Antony Firth, Head of Marine Strategy at Historic England, said: "These photographs of women working in the shipyards really struck me when I first saw them, as they show women directly involved in heavy, skilled engineering rather than on assembly lines.
