Where is Bridge End?
The one in Hexham is either on the north side of the Tyne - unless it refers to Whetstone Bridge by the High School (or Warden).
The 683 route does go via Hexham 'East End' (though only on the return to Hexham) - it does a loop from Hexham Bus Station to the East End back to Hexham Bus Station then heads off towards Newbrough.
Bridge End is by the Boat Inn. Where the road crosses the R South Tyne.
