Wallsend North

Wallsend North ward lies in the western part of the town of Wallsend. The area is primarily residential, characterised by a mix of interwar and post-war housing estates. It is bordered by the A191 to the north and the A186 to the south, with the built environment extending towards the Rising Sun Country Park. Local services are centred along the Fossway and Station Road, providing essential retail and community facilities for residents.

The ward contains the site of the historic Wallsend Hall, a former manor house, with its grounds now forming a public park. A significant feature is the presence of the Wallsend Burn, a watercourse which flows through the area towards the River Tyne. The western boundary is largely defined by the wooded slopes and open fields of the Rising Sun Country Park, offering accessible green space. Transport links include frequent bus services along main roads connecting to Newcastle upon Tyne.
