About Gosforth

Gosforth contains a unique collection of Norse artefacts in and around St. Mary's Church. This includes the Gosforth cross, which is the tallest and oldest Viking cross in England. 

Gosforth, with a reputation for good state schools and being relatively close to the city centre, is one of Newcastle-upon-Tyne’s most popular residential areas where you’ll find lush green spaces, parks and sports clubs.

The retail and commercial heart of Gosforth is the High Street where you will find an assortment of restaurants, cafes and shops further served by Gosforth Shopping Centre, a bustling retail and leisure mall, ideally located on Gosforth High Street. With Sainsbury’s, Boots, WHSmith and branches of Virgin Money and Lloyds Bank, Gosforth Shopping Centre provides for the full range of convenience shopping and amenity. Entertain the kids at Captain Ted’s Kindergarten and Soft Play, get a manicure at Queen Nails or explore the gifts, trinkets and crafts available at Yum Lush – Gosforth Shopping Centre has something for all the family.

Until 1988 Gosforth High Street was the main A1 north-south route. The western bypass, now renamed the A1, cuts the Gosforth and Fawdon parts of NE3 from Kingston Park, which lies to the west of the A1. The Great North Road from London to Edinburgh passed along Gosforth High Street and the street still has hotels and inns dating from the coaching era. Although a suburb of Newcastle from Victorian times, Gosforth was actually quite a large separate urban district in Northumberland with its own town hall. Gosforth only became officially part of the City of Newcastle in 1974 following local government reorganisation.

Gosforth is generally thought to be a relatively upmarket residential area popular with owner-occupiers with its core housing dating from before 1939.  It is situated north of the affluent Jesmond area.  The wider area of Gosforth includes a diverse range of housing types and tenures including local authority built homes, sheltered housing and flats to rent.

In 1951 the very first Greggs was opened in Gosforth…there’s still a Greggs there today, although it’s looking a little bit different these days!

Surface Water Flood Risk
Unlike flooding from rivers, surface water flooding can happen many miles from a river, often in places that people wouldn’t expect because it’s a long way from a river or stream – it happens simply because there is nowhere else for the rainwater to go. Risk ratings are measured as:
High Risk - an area which has a chance of flooding of greater than 1 in 30 (3.3%) in any one year.
Medium Risk - an area which has a chance of flooding of greater than 1 in 100 (1.0%) in any one year.
Low Risk - an area which has a chance of flooding of greater than 1 in 1000 (0.1%) in any one year.
Very Low Risk - an area in which the risk is below 1 in 1000 (0.1%) in any one year

Council Tax pays for multiple services in the property's local authority with only part of it going to the council itself. Residences within a Parish or Town Council area have an additional charge to fund the body. Each parish/town council has a different budget and imposes different fees. Not all councils have parishes/town councils and this varies across the country.

In instances where parish/town councils do affect the council tax value and we do not have the exact figure, we present council tax data with the below highlights. Take care to confirm which is being presented by the dashboard as this will need to be made clear to your clients:

avg - When we indicate the Council Tax price is 'avg', it means we have not been able to obtain an exact figure, so this number represents the mean value of Council Tax across the council for that property band. The exact figure will be slightly higher or lower because each parish/town council is priced differently.

min - When we indicate the Council Tax is a 'min', it represents the known amount that the council sets for itself, but excludes the parish/town council cost which we have not been able to obtain. The additional cost will need to be considered as it will be greater than the indicated price.
