When I can to newcastle this long diss used church was undergoing restoration it is howver now open as a Presbyterian church.Despite be a work in progress this splendid church now looks very elegant in all its retored 18 th century finery.Stylish is very much the word for the plaisterwork on the the ceciling and the supurb mahogany woodwork of the galleries which is not dark and shiny but light and very modern looking.If you get chance go inside this is agreat new venue for concerts in the city as well as a thriving and friendly church

Newcastle Cathedral

Newcastle Cathedral holds the story of the City in its stones and monuments. Located in the heart of Old Newcastle, it is a medieval church building of architectural interest with a spectacular lantern tower and filled with a superb collection of monuments, ledger stones and stained glass describing interesting people and events of importance to the history of the city and the region. The collection contains work by nationally and internationally reputed sculptors and craftspeople, including glass artist Leonard Evetts, 19th century woodcarver Ralph Hedley, and sculptor EH Bailey who was also responsible for Grey's Monument, and illustrates many of the ways in which contemporary local, regional and national culture has been shaped. Look out for mermaids, wild men, Roman senators, romantic ladies or even a precious medieval stained glass portrait of Mary and the infant Christ. Open: Sun 7:30am-5:30pm; Mon-Fri 7am-6:30pm; Sat & Bank Holidays 8am-4pm. Free entry; suggested donation £5pp.

St Nicholas Cathedral is a very impressive building on the inside, which is not really reflected by its exterior. We attended the Bobby Robson Foundation concert and thoroughly enjoyed it. It was different to what either of us had been to before and the acts made it a great experience. If you like old church buildings then St Nicholas is a great one to visit and if you haven't been to one before then it is an ideal place to start as it is very welcoming. I've been to a number of cathedrals, including Durham and York and have always felt that St Nicholas is more intimate.
