Rising above the River Tyne, part of The Glasshouse International Centre for Music (in the foreground on the right), located on the Gateshead side of the Tyne, with the ever-evolving Newcastle cityscape on the north side of the river.
Grade I listed All Saints' Church, a late 18th-century place of worship can be seen, located on Lower Pilgrim Street.
Interestingly, it is the only elliptical church building in England.
Just beyond All Saints, on the far left, Greys Monument rising up from where Grainger Street and Grey Street meet.

'In laboratory experiments, the scientists found that the cooling rate of their elephant skin-inspired mycelium tile was 25 per cent better than a fully flat mycelium tile, and the heating rate was 2 per cent lower.

They also found that the elephant skin-inspired tile’s cooling effect improved a further 70 per cent in simulated rain conditions, making it suitable for tropical climates.'
