Newcastle Castle | Review

 

Newcastle Castle | Review

Newcastle Castle, The Castle that gave Newcastle it's name is a medieval Castle in the heart of the city and is a great destination for both visitors to the area and locals alike. We have been before a few years ago and it was great to go back. 


There has been a castle at this site on the banks of the river Tyne since the Romans built Pons Aelius in around 193CE. 


The New Castle was built in 1172 and the city of Newcastle Upon Tyne developed around it.
