Easedale Gardens

About

Easedale Gardens is a residential neighbourhood located in the Bensham ward of Gateshead. The area is characterised by rows of traditional terraced housing built from local brick, with many properties featuring bay windows and small front gardens. Streets are arranged in a straightforward grid pattern, creating a compact and settled community atmosphere. The housing stock primarily dates from the late 19th and early 20th centuries, reflecting the area's development during Gateshead's industrial expansion.

The area sits on a gentle south-facing slope, offering views toward the Team Valley. It is positioned just west of the Coatsworth Road thoroughfare, providing direct access to local shops and services. A notable local landmark is the former Bensham Grove community house, a historic building that has served various civic functions. Green space is found in the form of small pocket parks and the nearby grounds of the old Gateshead Stadium site, which has been redeveloped for modern housing.
