The cobblestone streets, lined with traditional buildings and quaint shops, add to the sense of timelessness and charm. Newcastle-Upon-Tyne, located in the north east of England, has a rich history that dates back to Roman times. The city's strategic location on the River Tyne made it an important trading hub, and its fortifications were a crucial defense against invading forces. The Close area, in particular, was once home to the city's elite, with grand houses and churches that bore testament to their wealth and status. This photograph is a poignant reminder of a bygone era, offering a glimpse into the daily life and culture of Close and Newcastle-Upon-Tyne during the 1960s.
