On our way to Castle Keep.

There it is! The Castle Keep of Newcastle upon Tyne was built by Henry II between 1168-1178, it is one of the finest surviving examples of a Norman Keep in the country.

But first, The Black Gate.


The view from the castle roof.





Parts from the curtain wall and a well.

The bridges over River Tyne.

The Sage Gateshead

kittiwakes are nesting on and around Tyne Bridge, Newcastle is the most inland breeding colony of these seabirds anywhere in the world.

Time for a rest!

Gateshead Millennium Bridge.
