About

Tynemouth West sits on the headland at the mouth of the River Tyne where the Priory and Castle ruins overlook the North Sea. The town centre clusters around Front Street and Station Road, with independent shops, cafes and a weekend market at the metro station that draws antiques and food stalls. The seafront includes a long sandy beach and a promenade that link the headland to the bathing area known locally as Longsands; a stepped path rises from the promenade to the Priory grounds, giving direct access to cliff-top walks and views along the river mouth.

Housing in the ward ranges from terraced streets behind the seafront to larger houses facing the sea. Tynemouth Metro station provides regular links into Newcastle and other parts of the coast, making the area a transport node as well as a local retail and leisure centre. The combination of the ruined Priory on the headland, the market at the station and the accessible beach shapes daily life and weekend activity in the neighbourhood.
