Tyneside 240522 4345
Tyneside & Tyne Bridges 24 May 2022. From the Newcastle Quayside looking north up King Street to All Saints Church. A church was recorded as being on that site in 1286, but that was completely demolished in the late 18th century. The foundation stone of a completely new church was laid on 14 August 1776, but construction was only finished in 1796.
After deconsecration in 1961 it served as offices, and was used by the Northern Sinfonia for some years before they moved across the river to the then Sage Gateshead in 2004. The church suffered much weather damage in the years after that and was rather neglected, although church services were again held for a while. After a substantial restoration project, in October 2019 it reopened as All Saints Presbyterian Church.
