Newcastle Cathedral

For over 900 years Newcastle Cathedral has been at the centre of the city’s spiritual and civic life as evidenced by its memorials and ledger stones (grave covers) which, together, reveal much of the heritage of Newcastle and the wider region. Its lantern towers dominate the skyline, and thehe 19th-century chancel embellishments showcase wood and stone working skills by Ralph Hedley, Robert Beall and J S Westmacott. It frequently invites visitors to a series of concerts and organ recitals.
