About

North Gosforth is a residential suburb situated to the north of Newcastle's city centre. The area is characterised by quiet, tree-lined streets and a mix of housing, including inter-war semis and more modern developments. It functions primarily as a commuter area, with good road links via the A1 and Coast Road providing access to the city and wider region.

The local landscape is shaped by the nearby Gosforth Park, a large area of woodland and open space. This park is also the site of the Newcastle Racecourse, a longstanding venue for horse racing. The area retains a sense of separation from the more densely built urban core, with several smaller greens and sports fields scattered throughout.
