Jesmond Dene and Pets Corner

Jesmond Dene is a very popular attraction in the heart of Newcastle. It is home to a wide variety of wildlife as well as Pets Corner which houses farmyard animals and birds. It is suitable for families with children as well as those just wanting a quiet stroll along the river. On Sundays, a craft fair is held on the nearby Armstrong Bridge which sells paintings by local artists as well as other handmade goods.

Jesmond Dene has a Friends of Jesmond Dene group.

All parks in Newcastle are managed by Urban Green Rangers.
