More about Newcastle-upon-TyneNewcastle upon
Tyne (usually shortened to Newcastle) is a city in
north-east England. Situated inside the metropolitan
borough of Tyne and Wear (and formerly the county town
of Northumberland[1]), Newcastle is situated on the
north bank of the River Tyne, and was founded in Roman
times under the name Pons Aelius.
The city is the 20th most populous in England; the
larger Tyneside conurbation, of which Newcastle forms
part, is the 5th most populous conurbation in England.
Newcastle is a member of the English Core Cities Group.
People from Newcastle are commonly called Geordies. The
Latin term Novocastrian, which can equally be applied to
residents of any place called Newcastle, is usually only
used for ex-pupils of the city's Royal Grammar School.
The development of the city in the 1960s and 1970s saw
the demoliton of part of Graingertown as a prelude to
the modernist rebuilding initiatives of T. Dan Smith,
the leader of Newcastle City Council. A corruption
scandal was uncovered involving Smith and John Poulson,
a property developer, and both were jailed. Echoes of
the scandal were revisited in the late 1990s in the BBC
TV mini-series, Our Friends in the North.
The Tyne gorge between Newcastle (on the north Bank) and
Gateshead (an administratively separate borough) on the
south, is famous for a series of dramatic bridges,
including the Tyne Bridge of 1928 and Robert
Stephenson's High Level Bridge of 1849, the first
road/rail bridge in the world. Large-scale regeneration
has replaced former shipping premises with imposing new
office developments; an innovative tilting bridge, the
Gateshead Millennium Bridge was commissioned by
Gateshead and has integrated the older Newcastle
Quayside more closely with major cultural developments
in Gateshead, including the BALTIC Centre for
Contemporary Art and the Norman Foster-designed Sage
music centre. NewcastleGateshead Quayside is now a
thriving, cosmopolitan area with an abundance of bars,
restaurants and public spaces. As a tourist promotion,
Newcastle and Gateshead have linked together under the
banner "NewcastleGateshead", but otherwise remain
separate.
Notable Newcastle housing developments include Ralph
Erskine's the Byker Wall designed in the 1960s and now
Grade II-listed. It is on UNESCO's list of outstanding
20th century buildings.
Newcastle's thriving Chinatown lies in the northwest of
Grainger Town, centered on Stowell Street. A new Chinese
Arch, or paifang, providing a landmark entrance, was
handed over to the City with a ceremony in 2005.
According to the UK Government's 2001 census, the
unitary authority of Newcastle has a population of
around 259,500. However, the metropolitan boroughs of
North Tyneside (population c.190,000), South Tyneside
(population c. 150,000) and Gateshead (population
c.200,000) are also part of Newcastle's conurbation,
giving the Newcastle-Gateshead metropolitan area a
population of 799,000. According to the same statistics,
the average age of people living in Newcastle is 37.8
(the national average being 38.6). 93.1% of the
population are of White ethnic background (the national
average being 91.3%). Other ethnic groups in Newcastle,
in order of population size, are Pakistani at 1.9% and
Indians at 1.2%. There are also small but significant
Chinese and Jewish populations.
The city has two universities, Newcastle University
which earned the coveted Sunday Times University of the
Year award in 2000 and the newer Northumbria University
that was established in 1992 and was voted 'Best New
University' by The Times Good University Guide 2005.
There are eleven LEA-funded 11 to 18 schools and seven
independent schools with sixth forms in Newcastle. The
largest independent school is the Royal Grammar School
located in Jesmond. There are a number of successful
state schools, including Gosforth High School, Heaton
Manor, St Cuthbert's, Kenton School and Sacred Heart.
Newcastle College is the largest general further
education college in the North East, and there are two
smaller colleges in the Newcastle area. Newcastle
College is also one of the select few beacon colleges in
the United Kingdom.
Some 45% of Newcastle's school pupils live in wards
which are amongst the 10% most deprived in England.
There are several major shopping areas in Newcastle city
centre. The largest of these is the Eldon Square
shopping centre, which incorporates the largest Fenwick
department store in the UK and a John Lewis store
(formerly known as Bainbridge), which is often cited as
the first department store in the world. Eldon Square is
currently undergoing a full redevelopment which will
include a new bus station, replacing the old underground
bus station and redeveloping the fascia of the centre
that faces Grainger Town to allow the 60's concrete to
be replaced by more forgiving materials to accommodate
its architectural surroundings. As part of the
redevelopment the 1970s Green Market will be closed down
in early 2007 and rebuilt.
The main shopping street in the city is Northumberland
Street. In a 2004 report, it was ranked as the most
expensive shopping road in the UK for rent, outside of
London. Other shopping centres in Newcastle include the
relatively modern Eldon Garden and Monument Mall
complexes, the Newgate Centre, Central Arcade and the
traditional Grainger Market. The largest suburban
shopping areas are Gosforth and Byker. The largest
indoor shopping centre in Europe, The MetroCentre in
Gateshead is also nearby.
