About

Tynemouth Priory stands on a headland overlooking the North Sea. The ruins of the medieval monastery and the later coastal artillery fort dominate the grassy cliffs. The site encompasses the priory church, gatehouse, and defensive walls, with the adjacent Castle Keep adding to the historic skyline. The area is exposed to the elements, with views stretching out to the mouth of the River Tyne and the piers.

The headland is a significant archaeological site, with evidence of occupation dating back to the Iron Age. It remains an active promontory, with a functioning lighthouse situated within the fort's grounds. The coastline below features the small, sheltered Priory Haven and the longer stretch of King Edward's Bay, both accessible via steep paths from the clifftop.
