Northumberland Street
Newcastle's main shopping street
Before the Eldon Square shopping centre was built this was undoubtedly the main street for shopping in Newcastle. It continues to be very busy - there are over 50 retailers including pubs - and both Fenwick and M&S have entrances from the street. Nowadays pedestrianised, as you walk along you'll be treated to the sound of buskers, some very proficient, offering an eclectic mix of music!
