UK telephone area code 0191 is for "Tyne and Wear," which includes Durham (next digit: 3), Sunderland (next digit: 5) and Tyneside (next digit: 2, 4, or 6).

A number beginning 0191 234 is definitely in Tyneside, and is most likely a BT landline in Wallsend. However, with number portability, any number beginning with 0191 2 might be located anywhere in the Tyneside area of the 0191 zone, served by any local telephone company.

In international format, area code 0191 becomes +44 191. All local numbers are a further 7 digits.

(The plus sign means "insert your international access prefix here." From a GSM mobile phone, you can enter the number in full international format, starting with the plus sign. The most common prefix is 00, but North America (USA, Canada, etc.) uses 011, Japan uses 010, Australia uses 0011, and many other countries use different prefixes.)
