GATESHEAD | 4K Narrated Walking Tour | Let's Walk 2021
Join me for a walk around the captivating Tyneside town of Gateshead, located across the river from the famous city of Newcastle upon Tyne. Though often overlooked by those visiting Newcastle, Gateshead is full of history, home to a beautifully-regenerated quayside, and a town centre once ravaged by a devastating fire, but which houses a few intriguing stories and sights.
On our walk around Gateshead, we pass a number of interesting landmarks, including the River Tyne, Gateshead Millennium Bridge, the old Baltic Flour Mills, Gateshead Quays, the Sage Gateshead, HMS Calliope, the Tyne Bridge, Hillgate, St. Mary's Church & Heritage Centre, The Central Pub, Gateshead Old Town Hall & Clock Tower, West Street, Sports Day Sculpture, Gateshead Interchange, St. Joseph's Catholic Church, Jackson Street, former Gateshead Co-operative Buildings, The Tilley Stone Pub, The Metropole, St. Edmund's Church, High Street, the Grey Nag's Head Pub and Trinity Square.
