Sightseeing
Grey Street
Stunning architecture!
Get a feel for Newcastle’s medieval past and walk around the castle and streets of the Quayside. Some great places to eat and drink, my favourite gallery The Side, stunning buildings and if you’re here on a Sunday check out the Quayside market for a variety of stalls serving up freshly made food from all around the world.

I live near here and I love to take my dog here on a summer evening as it’s a nice walk and I love the views of the angel against various skies.

This is a great way to walk into Newcastle. You’ll pass The Arches which features cool independent businesses such as Big Fat Donut Co. I love the steel structure of the bridge and the views of the river, Quayside and other bridges is amazing! You also come out by the castle and other historic buildings and can walk past The Old Post Office building on your way into Newcastle, another stunning building! You can also walk over The Tyne Bridge into Newcastle but as it’s a busy 4-lane road with cars going 40mph I don’t find it as relaxing or pleasant!
