Trinity Maritime Centre
With its proximity to the sea and its shipbuilding past, Newcastle has very strong maritime connections.
The Trinity Maritime Centre, housed in a former warehouse, tells the city's maritime past with model ships, ship memorabilia and displays showing Newcastle's Quayside in its heyday.
This is a valuable insight into the past for large parts of the Quayside were destroyed by fire in the 1850s, and so today it is hard to get a feel for how crowded and bustling the area once was.
The Trinity Maritime Centre is located on Broad Chare, just off the Quayside and to the south-east of the city centre.
It is open from 11am to 4pm Mondays to Fridays between April and October. Admission costs around £2 for adults.
