Grey Street
Voted by Radio Four listeners a few years back as the most beautiful street in Europe.
Not quite sure what happened to Cassandra yesterday – hopefully she’s OK and she might go back and add a picture – we’ll see!

The site was launched way back in February 2006 and, apart from a few 'sick' days here and there it has provided a daily snapshot of life in the great city of Newcastle upon Tyne-

The nicest curve in UK. Do you know that was voted ‘Best street in the UK’ by BBC Radio 4 listeners in 2002? Its nice from the begining to the end. I had a lot of fun over there.
It was great to discover this page but at the same time I feel sad because I´m far away from Newcastle. Those pictures make me sad..
sorry beth I didnt read your comment before I wrote mine….;)
I work just down Dean Street and I love walking down this way in the mornings – not coming back home in the evening obviously, as it’s as steep as it looks on the photo!
Another great photo Beth
Heh Davidhg that made me chuckle. It really is a great street. Newcastle is a great city, but as long as you’re happy where you are, then that’s OK too. If you’re not – then do something about it.
As long as you are happy though, just make plans to visit sometime
Sue, no, walking back up from Dean Street or the Quayside = NOT so much fun!
This is one of my favorite streets.
Hope you like the photo too Kelly. I like how the Tyne Bridge is hiding
I agree that Grey Street is a very beautiful street. I walk down Grey Steet everyday on the way to work and the beauty of the street never ceases to amaze. I do however find the street to be extremely slippy especially when it’s wet and Dean Steet is even worse for that. I have fallen over many times and once even severely damaged my elbow. Beautiful street but both streets are very dangerous.
I have some lovely photos of Grey Street and Dean Street that I will post as well. I agree with the previous comment from Craig regarding how slippy Dean Street is, I have slipped over many of times with my camera. I really wish the council either grit the street like they do with Grey Street or change the paving stones and also even them out a little. I’m sure other people will agree with that as well.
I will third that. Even when it’s just wet it’s slippy – I can’t imagine trying to walk up or down in ice or snow!
