This is why you NEED to visit Newcastle Upon Tyne | England's MOST Underrated City
Welcome to my vlog of Newcastle upon Tyne, I'm proud to be bringing you to my home! Join me as I explore some of the most iconic landmarks and hidden gems that this city has to offer.
We'll start by strolling along the iconic Quayside, with its famous bridges and scenic riverside views. Then, we'll walk through the charming streets of the city center, taking in the stunning Georgian and Victorian architecture, including the famous Grey Street and Grainger Town. As a season ticket holder of Newcastle United, I'll also give you a sneak peak of St James' Park on a match day, and a glimpse of what all us Geordies are passionate about. To finish off on our first day exploring, we'll also visit a few of the free museums such as the Discovery Museum, The Hancock Museum and the Laing Art Gallery.
Day 2 brings a lovely little surprise of snowfall, and we begin at Grey's Monument, this time working our way through Grainger Town, and passing the bustling Grainger Market, where you can find a wide array of local products and delicious food. A quick stop off at The Bigg Market, then we head towards the grand Central Station, then into a hidden gem, the Lit and Phil.
I'll then take you into St Nicholas' Cathedral, which I had never been in before, and then along to Newcastle's Castle Keep, which gave Newcastle its name.
As promised, finishing off with a lovely surprise, we'll be heading down into the dark with Victoria Tunnel Tours. I found exploring the Victoria Tunnel fascinating, and really enjoyed the stories and history alongside it.
It took a lot of planning, researching, and editing to finally get this video out, so I really hope you enjoyed it and it wasn't too boring. If you all enjoy this video, I may very well make a part 2, picking up on some stuff I missed out, but also including some other things to see and do which are slightly outside of the city.

Stagecoach Newcastle 40 Full Route Visual- Wallsend to Chapel House
Hey, here's a full route visual of the 40, which runs from Wallsend Interchange to Chapel House, Hillhead Parkway via Walkerville, Walker, Welbeck Road, Byker, Shieldfield, Manors, Newcastle City Centre, Blackett Street, St James' Park, Arthurs Hill, CAV (Newcastle General Hospital), Benwell Grove, Benwell Hill, Denton Burn and West Denton.
I believe the 40 is the busiest Stagecoach route in Newcastle, although I could be wrong - however it has got rammed every time I've caught it. So, at 6:30am, I thought I'd choose to timelapse this route in order to save myself some sanity rather than filming it during the day.
The 40 runs every 12 minutes (combined with the 39 to provide an every 6 minute frequency between Walker and Denton) using ADL Enviro 400 MMC Smart Hybrids from the Walkergate depot.

The Tyne at Wallsend
SEE MY TRAVEL GROUP ON FACEBOOK :
Here we can see the Tyne at Wallsend - formerly an area of a great deal of industrial activity but which unfortunately is no more. This shows the sites of the former Swanhunter yards as well as the former ferry terminal between Wallsend and Hebburn which featured in the 1971 film Get Carter. This is the place where a shoot out takes places between Carter played by Michael Caine and three local gangsters.
My channel on you tube : is one of the most prolific from Poland. My big interest in life is travel and history but I have also placed films on other subjects
Please feel free to ask questions in the public area or to comment on things you disagree with. Sometimes there are mistakes because I speak without preparation. If I see the mistakes myself, I make this clear in the text. Please also leave a star rating!
There are a number of films here on the packaging industry. This is because I am the publisher of Central and Eastern European Packaging -- - the international platform for the packaging industry in this region focusing on the latest innovations, trends, design, branding, legislation and environmental issues with in-depth profiles of major industry achievers.
Most people may think packaging pretty boring but it possibly effects your life more than you really imagine!
Central and Eastern European Packaging examines the packaging industry throughout this region, but in particular in the largest regional economies which are Russia, Germany, Poland, Czech Republic, Ukraine and Austria. That is not to say that the other countries are forgotten, they are not, but obviously there is less going on. However the fact that there are so many travel related films here is not from holidays but from business trips attending trade fairs around the region. Every packaging trade fair is a new excuse to make another film!
Hadrian's Wall Roman Gallery, Great North Museum:Hancock, Newcastle. Full tour. Free entry.
Hadrian’s Wall Gallery at the Great North Museum: Hancock in Newcastle, is an essential place to go to during your visit to the Wall. The gallery houses an outstanding collection of Roman statues, altars and milestones from along the wall. My film takes you on a tour around the Roman items on display.
The Great North Museum: Hancock is an award winning museum of natural history and ancient civilisations, located in the centre of Newcastle. It is free to enter.
If you are visiting Hadrian’s Wall then I highly recommend a visit to the Great North Museum in Newcastle, where you will see in the Hadrian’s Wall gallery, statues, milestones, altars and artefacts found at the various sites along the wall. Much of our understanding about the history of the wall has been learnt from the inscriptions found on these items. The gallery at the heart of the museum is devoted to Hadrian’s Wall, exploring its construction and many aspects of life along the Roman frontier, including its defence, medicine, and worship. A few of the most noteworthy exhibits:
• The ornate statue showing the birth of Mithras from a cosmic egg, decorated with signs of the zodiac.
• The giant-sized relief from Houseteads which shows Mithras slaying a bull.
The museum has a number of other great exhibitions including: The Living Planet gallery which tells the story of wildlife and habitats, including a life-size African elephant model; a display about the Ancient Egyptians which includes an Epyptian mummy; Fossils gallery houses a full size T-Rex skeleton replica. The museum includes exhibitions on natural history and geology, Ancient Egypt and Ancient Greece, Romans and Hadrian's Wall, World Cultures and Pre-history. It also includes an interactive study zone, an under 5's space, and a digital Planetarium, as well as new learning facilities, a new temporary exhibition space, cafe and a study garden.
The museum houses not only the Hancock Museum collections, but also those of the University's Museum of Antiquities and Shefton Museum.
Among the Museum's permanent residents are a life-size cast of an African elephant; the Egyptian mummy Bakt-en-Hor (previously known as Bakt-hor-Nekht); a full size replica of a T-Rex skeleton; and Sparkie, Newcastle's famous talking budgie, who was stuffed after his death in 1962
Where to find the museum
The museum is located in a Victorian building on the campus of Newcastle University, next to the Great North Road, and close to Barras Bridge. The nearest Tyne & Wear Metro station is Haymarket, and there is also a bus station at Haymarket. The walk to the museum is only 5 minutes.

Stagecoach Newcastle 12 Full Route Visual- Wallsend to Two Ball Lonnen
Hey, here's a full route visual of the 12, which runs from Wallsend Interchange to Fenham, Two Ball Lonnen via Walkerville, Walker, St Anthony's, Byker, Byker Metro Station, Shieldfield, Manors, Newcastle City Centre, Blackett Street, St James' Park, Nuns Moor, CAV North (Newcastle General Hospital), and Hadrian Road.
The 12 runs every 10 minutes between Two Ball Lonnen and Walker, continuing to Wallsend every 20 minutes. It uses ADL Enviro 400s (both diesel and hybrid variants) from the Walkergate depot.
I really couldn't get my head round why all of the Stagecoach drivers don't turn round at the roundabout and pick passengers up from stop C in Wallsend Interchange as they're meant to... When I first went there I didn't know that they didn't turn around, so I just sat and watched a 40 & then a 12 completely avoid the side of the bus station I was waiting at. Thankfully, at 6:30 in the morning I only had 10 minutes to wait for the next 40, so I just crossed over and asked the driver if I could get on at the 'stand' and he said it was fine - then he also went the wrong way and missed out the stop the 40 is timetabled to stop at. I'd taken note of this by the time I returned to Wallsend to timelapse the 12, so I walked directly over to the bus that was parked outside the public toilets. I honestly don't know why the Stagecoach drivers do this, because it would be much shorter and not include any traffic lights, if they just turned around at the roundabout and go through the bus station. On the plus side, it did allow for the sight of the end of Hadrian's Wall (hence Wallsend's name) at: 0:12.
Thanks for watching! :)

Last section of the Hadrian’s wall walk through Newcastle to Wallsend. 84 miles across England solo!
The Roman Wall at Segedunum (Wallsend), UK
SEE MY HISTORY SITE ON FACEBOOK :
Segedunum marks the western extremity of Hadrian's Wall. The first idea was that the Roman Wall would end at Pons Aelius (Newcastle upon Tyne). Work began at Pons Aelius in 122CE and proceeded towards the west. Subsequently, it was decided that the Wall should be extended further east, possibly to protect the river crossing at Pons Aelius. In about 127CE, work was begun on a further four-mile section of the Wall east from the fort of Pons Aelius. The new section of wall was narrower than the sections previously built, being 2.29 m on a foundation of 2.4 m. Unlike the existing wall, the extension had no vallum.
The fort measured 138 m from north to south and 120 m from east to west, covering and area of 1.7 hectares. A wide ditch and an earth embankment surrounded the fort on all sides. It had four double gates with the east, west and north gates opening outside the wall and only the south gate opening within the Wall. The Wall joined to the west wall of the fort just south of the west gate. From the southeast angle of the fort, a 1.98 m wide wall ran down to the riverbank and extended at least as far as the low water level.
There is evidence that there was an extensive village surrounding the fort, including the area to the north of the wall.
The original garrison of Segedunum is unknown, but in the second century the Second Cohort of Nervians was stationed there. In the third and fourth centuries the part-mounted Fourth Cohort of the Lingones occupied the fort, as recorded in the Notitia Dignitatum. Both units were 600 strong. 120 cavalry and 480 infantry
Sometime round about 400CE the fort was abandoned. For centuries the area remained as open farmland, but in the eighteenth century, collieries were sunk near the fort and the area gradually became a populous pit village. Eventually, in 1884, the whole fort disappeared under terraced housing.
In 1929 some excavations were carried out which recorded the outline of the fort. The local authority marked out this outline in white paving stones. In the 1970s the terraced houses covering the site were demolished.
A section of Hadrian's Wall was excavated and a reconstruction built in the early 1990s. The Segedunum project began in January 1997 with a series of excavations in and around the Fort, as well as the construction of the Bath House and the conversion of former Swan Hunter shipyard buildings to house the new museum. Segedunum Roman Fort, Baths & Museum opened to the public in June 2000.
HADRIAN'S WALL
Hadrian's Wall was 117.5 km long, it varied in height depending on what construction materials were available nearby. In this area the wall was around 2.4m high and we can still see where the ditches were located.
Roman Emperor Hadrian came to Britain in 122CE and the wall was no doubt planned before then, maybe even started before then. The wall was a clear indication of Roman power but also an indication that enough was enough and that the Empire was not going to continue growing. Hadrian's father Trajan had extended the Empire with the acquisition of Dacia in modern Romania and Mesopotamia in modern Iraq but Hadrian retreated from these areas. Hadrian followed the principle of Augustus a century earlier that consolidation, not enlargement was the name of the game.
Would it not have been easier for Hadrian simply to have conquered the remainer of Britain rather than build a wall? After all, he knew it was an island. This is a good question, the north had a low population and indeed the Empire did make north briefly later. I am unable to give an answer.
The Wall served more of a statement than a military value. It showed outsiders how strong Rome was and was useful in collecting taxation revenues. Certainly in other parts of the Empire, the 'barbarians' outside were beginning to live like Romans at this time and organise towns, roads etc.
The wall took only six years to finish although no doubt extra work was continually being done. At each of the 80 Roman miles there was a milecastle holding a handful of troops who could be called out if necessary. These milecastles were located within signalling or physical view of each other and so they are not equidistant.
The garrison was made up of auxiliaries, sometimes from far away places. The fortress of Arbeia (not strictly speaking a border fortress) at South Shields was garrisoned by people from Iraq!
Places to see in ( Newcastle upon Tyne - UK ) The Quayside
Places to see in ( Newcastle upon Tyne - UK ) The Quayside
The Quayside is an area along the banks (quay) of the River Tyne in Newcastle upon Tyne (the north bank) and Gateshead (south bank) in the North East of England, United Kingdom.
The area was once an industrial area and busy commercial dockside serving the area, while the Newcastle side also hosted a regular street market. In recent years the docks became run-down, and the area has since been heavily redeveloped to provide a modern environment for the modern arts, music and culture, as well as new housing developments (e.g. at St Peter's Marina). The NewcastleGateshead initiative now lists the Quayside as a top ten attraction.
Along the Newcastle side is an area that houses restaurants, bars and night clubs as well as housing and the Newcastle Law Courts. Quayside is also the name of the street running along the Newcastle riverside.
The Gateshead side of the river is designated and signposted as Gateshead Quays. It is the site of the BALTIC Centre for Contemporary Art and The Sage Gateshead performing arts and conference centre. Also moored on the Gateshead side from 1984 until 2008 was the Tuxedo Princess (replaced for a time by sister ship Tuxedo Royale), a floating nightclub, beneath the Tyne Bridge near The Sage.
One of the Quayside's main features is the pedestrian Gateshead Millennium Bridge, opened in 2001, which spans the river between the BALTIC Centre for Contemporary Art and the Newcastle Law Courts. The other bridge which allows direct road and pedestrian links between the two banks is the low level Swing Bridge, built in 1876, and located nearer the two respective city centres. Using the two bridges, the Quayside is the venue for the junior course of the annual Great North Run.
( Newcastle upon Tyne - UK) is well know as a tourist destination because of the variety of places you can enjoy while you are visiting the city of Newcastle upon Tyne . Through a series of videos we will try to show you recommended places to visit in Newcastle upon Tyne - UK

Hadrian's Wall Path takes a detour away from the Wall at Heddon-on-the-Wall where it heads down to the river. The path then follows the river to Wallsend bypassing the last section of the wall in favour of a more scenic route.
The day after completing the Isaac Tea Trail, I decided to walk the real route of the Wall.
I managed to get a lift to Jesmond in Newcastle with the intention of catching the Metro to Wallsend. However, I forgot to bring my wallet and didn't have any cash on me... so walked to Byker to start my walk. I wanted to walk to Wallsend to start but I had family commitments that meant I needed to be in Heddon-on-the-Wall by 3pm.
The walk is a road walk, so trainers. Took me 3.5 hours from Byker with stops to take film footage, some time spent around Newcastle Keep (the site of a Roman fort), and a little detour into Benwell to capture the Roman temple and Vallum crossing.
My planned route from Wallsend can be found at:
I pick up the trail at the bottom of Byker High Street... the wall would've gone through the middle of the street (Shields Road)... and I head down via the Cumberland Arms to the Ouse Burn because Byker Bridge wouldn't have been there in Roman times.
I had intended to give talked commentary on my walk but the sound of the traffic drowned me out most of the time, so decided to just put the entire walk to music.

Discover Tynemouth: Scenic Ferry & Train Adventures You Can’t Miss!
Tynemouth Priory and Castle is in the North East of England. It has been there from around the 12th Century and has seen some battles, murder, and invasion from the Vikings. I start the journey from South Shields ferry port and travel over the River Tyne to the North Shields port, before getting the metro to Tyneside. Join me as I travel via water and land, using the Network One ticket, meaning bus travel, Metro travel and ferry cost me £6 for the entire day.
For those that are into trains, I film the new Nexus Metro Class 555, as well as the famous flying banana train (HST Class 43) and Transpenine Express.
Had to re-edit the previous North Shields video mentioned in this video. It will be on my channel soon.
Join me on this journey!

In the North East of England sits the area known as Tyne and Wear. The railway station by the name of Wallsend was first opened in 1839 by the then Newcastle and North Shields Railway near to the end of that famous landmark Hadrian’s wall. Hence it’s rather appropriate name.
Following the introduction of a Metro rail system. This light rail system opened in stages from August 1980, and has lines covering 48.2 miles of track.
Development of the system resulted in the station being re-developed and re-opened in November 1982. The original station was converted for use as a Metro station with a change in style to make it match the Metro standard.
One of the interesting things about Wallsend station is the dual signage to be found there. The signs are in both English and believe it or not Latin. This was done in recognition of it’s location close to Segendunum Roman fort, built at the end of Hadrian’s Wall.
The station has a healthy traffic of over 500,000 with trains servicing the station every 12 minutes Monday – Saturday daytime, with evening and Sunday services at 15 minute intervals.
Wallsend is one of the very few bilingual stations in the England. Other dual signage can be found at Southall – Punjabi, Hereford – Welsh and St Pancras International, Ebbsfleet and Ashford all having French added to their signs.
Wallsend also served as a major interchange for local bus services due to its close proximity to the Wallsend Bus station. This however closed in the 1990s with the facilities for staff and drivers being withdrawn.
Wallsend is situated on the Yellow line between Walkergate and Hadrian Road.
Well we hope you have enjoyed hearing about Wallsend.

Gratias tibi.
