Newcastle is England's most northerly city and shares a long
history with Gateshead, its neighbour on the south side of the
River Tyne. The two, city and town respectively, are a heady mix of
the old and new; both were industrial powerhouses during the 19th
Century that have successfully embraced recent change, reinventing
themselves as vibrant places of entertainment and culture. With
this book in hand, journey over and under the Tyne to discover
treasures such as the steam turbine ship Turbinia, a sleekly
streamlined example of north-eastern mechanical know-how; wander
across the wide-open space of the Town Moor, where President Jimmy
Carter has the right to graze cattle; take in Saltwell Towers, an
eccentric castle in the leafy surroundings of Saltwell Park; then
top it all off with a pint in a pub where the ghost of Charles I
may well make an appearance. Written by a Geordie, this book will
help you explore the quirkier side of both Newcastle and Gateshead,
and discover their hidden gems.
