Saltwell Tyne and Wear Map

About Saltwell

Saltwell’s distinctive character unfolds across its residential streets and pockets of green. It lies 1.6 km south of Gateshead (from Gateshead: bearing 186°T, OS grid NZ 252 612). The land here, a gentle swell of earth, catches the late afternoon sun in a way that lends a soft, enduring glow to the brickwork and the mature trees lining its avenues. Though no grand abbey or ancient castle marks its landscape, the quiet dignity of its Victorian and Edwardian houses speaks of a settled past, their bay windows reflecting the passing clouds like placid eyes. The modest Saltwell Park, a cherished amenity, offers a tranquil counterpoint to the surrounding suburban hum, its paths inviting leisurely strolls and its open spaces a breath of fresh air for those who call Saltwell home.
