The Parkes multibeam pulsar survey is a sensitive survey of a strip of the Galactic plane with $|b|<5\degr$ and $260\degr < l < 50\degr$ at 1374 MHz. Here we report the discovery of 120 new pulsars and subsequent timing observations, primarily using the 76-m Lovell radio telescope at Jodrell Bank. The main features of the sample of 370 published pulsars discovered during the multibeam survey are described. Furthermore, we highlight two pulsars: PSR J1734$-$3333, a young pulsar with the second highest surface magnetic field strength among the known radio pulsars, $B_s = 5.4\times10^{13}$ G, and PSR J1830$-$1135, the second slowest radio pulsar known, with a 6-s period.
