Tips for your visit

Check the address on a map before you leave, because the postcode (BT33) is not one you would expect for Newcastle upon Tyne, and you want to be sure you are heading to the right Newcastle.

Allow a short stop, then leave extra time to wander the surrounding streets on foot.
Wear comfortable shoes and bring a charged phone, which helps if you want to follow a self-guided route.
