Housing developments are planned for green fields on the outskirts of Tyneside but the green areas are liable to flooding. The environmental costs of house building could encourage people to leave Tyneside. It is a shame that the inner city areas of Newcastle and North Tyneside have been overlooked.
Residents in Benton could be surrounded by hundreds of new homes. Persimmon Homes is seeking permission to build more than 500 houses on farmland.
There have been plans for housing in the Hazlerigg area in the north of Newcastle. Thousands of new homes are being built across North Tyneside in places including Backworth, Benton, North Shields, Wallsend and West Monkseaton. A planning inspector is looking at the council’s 15-year Local Plan, which is proposing to earmark Murton Gap and Killingworth Moor for around 5,000 new houses.

great work here & thanks for it, agree with a lot, & disagree with some. I work in construction and have worked with NCC. We don't always get it right, cause we can only do our best at the time, but videos like this/ interest like this (your work/efforts) is the only way we'll get it right next time! Please keep going - it's the only way you'll hold us to task!
I moved up Newcastle in 2009 with my wife from Hertfordshire, and never looked back. Newcastle is a wonderful place to live in. The history is brilliant.
she was so much in shock after her drive with Alan, that she walked away leaving the car door open!
Newcastle fired up the industrial revolution
It’s amazing to see how with progression, all we have managed to do is construction buildings that’s are not only vulgar but poorly constructed compared to ones from the 1800. Nothing is built to last now
From there, Do not miss it. Will never return.
The guest house looked like it was in Tynemouth.
Fantastic thank you, though the music is too loud. Is John Grundy narrating it?
One of the pictures shown is taken from Eldon Square looking down to Percy Street and it was in this location that Farage ( of Farage Hall) deported himself and his toad like face on a visit during which a quick thinking local Geordie lad took the opportunity to introduce ‘Toadface’ to a milkshake. - (dead accurate). I saw it coming, you saw it coming, we all saw it coming - except Farage. To this day I can still see a crestfallen and irate Farage beating a muttering retreat along Percy Street followed by his minders. I lived in Newcastle for five years and have many happy memories of this time not the least of which is this ‘Farage’ episode. (Howay the lads)

It's still a shithole today
Agree with some of this - T Dan Smith era was pretty devastating, and the failure to include the west end on the metro was bad (but probably too expensive, despite it being the area that would have most benefitted). I lived in Cradlewell when the bypass was built - yes, some trees were lost but the road had been a pretty bad bottle neck for years, and the bypass effectively 'lifted' the road out of the Dene, so it wasn't all bad and made sense with the existing traffic flow from central motorway to coast road. I do miss the toon.
I remember the Civic Centre opening, my mam and me went to hear the Blaydon Races playing on the hour. i was 8
Scumderland worse
Came here for a holiday in 2023 , 1 thing i did notice about this place was , How clean the streets where , zero garbage on the streets , such a clean tidy place , me and my kids thought the place was lovely , Though there could be more things going on , its a very nice place 👍👍👍
T Dan Smith ended up where he belonged - PRISON!!!!!!
Its dreamers on the council, Lefty's who have never run a business.. people who don't have a clue telling people who do, you get the demise of what was good into charity shop meca
Late 60's, teenager, brilliant memories, the beach, the girls, the Spanish City rides Mark Knopfler mentions in Tunnel of Love..... However, if there's one lesson I've learned the hard way, never go back, keep your memories intact.
Wasn't he a teacher at Highfield Comprehensive School in the horrible Felling in Gateshead? The most nastiest troublemaking twisted people you could come across in Felling.
Yes, he was a teacher at Highfield. I've lived in and around Felling for over 60 years, most of Felling and Windy Nook are good places but I probably would agree that there are some nutters knocking about now. However that's probably only the last 10 years or so when people began to loose all respect for the police, their neighbourhood and I'd probably suggest that was when drugs became commonplace.
@@stevecarr3019 Apparently it's absolutely rife with smackrats & alcoholics. The whole of England is a mess anyways now. It's the whole world in 1 & we are just a small island with no homes for our own people never mind anyone else & our NHS is in a hell of a state too. Broken Britain! 🤦♀️ Jeez....
Don’t know who Ronny Gill is but there’s blokes looking for him all over the city centre.
Love whitley bay

"Oh what happened to you? What ever happened to me?"
The streets of Newcastle seem run down and dirty now the pavements are like a chewing gum carpet
Those tower blocks are depressingly ugly.
My Mam n dad were the first registered marriage at the Civic Centre before it was officially opened n Tyne Tees filmed they're wedding

The whole council is an abomination, from the CEO to the care of the elderly, rotten.
Loved the films so much 😊
I used to go to the old town hall with me mam when I was just a little bairn I wasn't even old enough for school but I still remember
The modern generation would instantly surrender if another Hitler was to come along
The council destroyed Whitley on purpose a lot of back handers
I hope Whitley bay is the place to go today…10 years on!
Newcastle has had its day its now what I call Newcastle City Campus Very few geordies live in the center now
Half the businesses in the Grinager market would close if it wasn't for students
@@hanifleylabi8628 your right but students dont have a lot of cash to spend they have borrowed a lot of money to become students
@@Jeffybonbon True, most don't although some do, including some of the international ones who pay a lot of fees to be here. I think some of the fish mongers even had some Chinese signs at one point! And they're helping to keep the tradition of the butchers selling pigs heads haha
@@hanifleylabi8628 I think newcastel is a Campus now I dont have an issue with that its a differant Newcastle but i am sure my mam and dad said the same in the 1970s 80s when i worked in town
