Gosforth

Montagu Court Gosforth Newcastle upon Tyne NE3

I walked across the Town Moor toward Gosforth, then along Kenton Road and left onto Montagu Avenue.

Coming to Montagu Court – facing north, in shadow from the spring sun – constructed in 1963 by local architects Waring & Netts.

Modelled here by Northumbria University.

I took a look around, many thanks to the amiable resident, who gave me the lowdown on this high rise.

By the main entrance to the tower is this delightful concrete relief.

Rather circuitously I wandered around the adjoining streets – finding myself on the edge of the grassland facing the southern elevation.

I suggest that you take the footpath by the side of Ferndene Court, I didn’t.

Should you fancy a flat with a view house prices in Montagu Court have an overall average of £456,667 over the last year.

Then you can transform your home in the George Bond style.
