Sandhill
Sandhill is a street in Newcastle near the riverfront that has been used as a quayside since Roman times. The street was named Sandhill because it literally used to be a hill of sand when the tide was out.
There are many historic buildings on Sandhill, including Bessie Surtees’ House and the Guildhall – both Grade 1 listed buildings. Sandhill joins The Close and The Side. Castle steps link Sandhill to Castle Garth.
