Castle Keep is small, but the history embedded in every corner, makes it really special. You need tickets to get in, but most of the ground outside is free to walk. Don't miss the opportunity, whilst here, to walk to the bridge over the river Tyne for stunning views of the lock and the other famous bridges nearby.

The castle Keep has a big hall, a small chapel and other things. The castle keep gives a stunning view of Newcastle city. The black gate has a lift while the castle keep has steep circular stairs. The entry has the same tickets as that of the black gate

Superb castle keep in excellent condition.LOTS OF STEPS !But soooo worth it for the amazing views from the roof !! Part of Newcastle Castle.
