Tynemouth village is positioned at the mouth of the River Tyne and has excellent road and rail links to the A1 and Newcastle. It developed around the 7thc monastery and is a Conservation Area comprised of mainly Georgian houses at the core of the village.

As well as its historical heritage, Tynemouth is recognised for its walks (piers, beaches, sea fronts, parks), sports (surfing, jetski, Tynemouth Yachting Club, Tynemouth Golf Club, Tynemouth Swimming Pool), cycling (the Coast to Coast cycle ride ends at Tynemouth) and dining (restaurants, cafes, bars, a deli, and even a chocolatier).
2. The Location of Percy Street
Built in 1820. Predominantly still Georgian, Percy Street was originally called Back Street when the village comprised two streets (Front Street & Back Street).

The house is situated 200 yards from the medieval castle and priory of Tynemouth. See the following link for more information:
