Spital Tongues, a verdant suburb, offers a quiet contemplation of the urban fringe. It lies 1.6 km west-north-west of Newcastle upon Tyne (from Newcastle upon Tyne: bearing 291°T, OS grid NZ 235 654). The gentle slope of its land, catching the pale northern light, hints at the agricultural past before the houses gradually rose, their brickwork weathering to a soft, familiar hue. A sense of settled life pervades Spital Tongues, an enduring grace in its unassuming streets. Here, the old paths still hold a whisper of the journeys taken by those who first made their homes in this particular fold of the Tyne Valley.
