 St Nicholas’ Cathedral by toonsarah
St. Margaret's Chapel contains the only known fragment of medieval stained glass in the cathedral, depicting the Madonna and Child. There are also several interesting memorials, the oldest being a 13th century effigy of an unknown knight, who is thought to have been a member of Edward 1st’s household. This is one of the oldest objects in the cathedral. Another memorial honours Admiral Lord Collingwood, a hero of the Battle of Trafalgar who was baptised and married in the cathedral, and whose statue now looks out to sea from Tynemouth. Directions: At the junction of Mosley Street, Collingwood Street and St Nicholas Street, at the south end of the Groat Market.

This is one of the smallest cathedrals in Britain. Inside there are the remains of an 11thcentury church on which todays 14th and 15th century building is founded. The cathedrals most striking feature is the ornate “lantern tower” which is half tower and half spire. It was first built in 1448 and rebuilt in 1608.

Newcastle’s Cathedral is a haven of solitude amidst a busy city. It’s on St. Nicholas street, near the castle and is open to visitors daily. We visited late on a Monday afternoon, just before we caught our train to London and we had the place to ourselves. There's not too much to see inside but it's a quite, sombre place nonetheless. It dates from the 14th century and its most impressive feature is the tall tower, which can be seen from many points in the city. Leave a Comment Address: St Nicholas Street
