The centre of town, the Monument is a meeting place, central point of the bustling city centre. Sit in a cafe and people watch or walk down Grey Street, past the Theatre Royal towards the famous Quayside and admire the beautiful architecture of the curved streets.
Central place of Newcastle. The very heart of the city centre. Lots of shops, pubs and restaurants
Grey's Monument is a Grade I listed monument to Charles Grey, 2nd Earl Grey built in 1838 in the centre of Newcastle.
At the north end of Grey Street stands the 135-foot-high Grey's Monument, a favorite meeting place in the heart of the city. Built in 1835 in memory of the second Earl Grey, it commemorates his role as Prime Minister and architect of the 1832 Reform Bill. The column's viewing platform – a 164-step climb that's only occasionally open to the public – boasts superb views of the city. Grainger Street, which ends at Grey's Monument, is one of Newcastle's most attractive shopping streets. The thoroughfare and the area around it, Grainger Town, are named after Richard Grainger, the architect behind the rebuilding of the city center between 1824 and 1841. Here, you'll also find excellent shopping in Grainger Market, established in 1835 and still bustling with over 100 vendors selling food and other goods. Address: Grey Street, Newcastle upon Tyne
