Newcastle Castle (Newcastle upon Tyne)

2006-03-03T19:47:55Z

Rob~enwiki: link added

[[Image:Newcastle_castle_keep.jpg|thumb|right|150px|The [[Keep]]]]

[[Newcastle upon Tyne]]'s '''Castle Keep''' was built by order of [[Henry II of England|King Henry II]] of [[England]] between [[1168]] and [[1178]].

The [[keep]] stands on a site of an earlier [[Motte-and-bailey]] [[castle]] begun by [[Robert Curthose]], the son of [[William the Conqueror]], in 1080. Prior to this, it was a cemetery belonging to the Anglo-Saxon settlement of Monkchester, and before that the site of [[Pons Aelius]], a [[Ancient Rome|Roman]] [[fort]]. Curthose's castle was the "New Castle upon Tyne" from which the city's name derives.

The Keep is a [[listed building|Grade 1 listed building]], and a [[Scheduled Ancient Monument]].

It is currently owned by Newcastle City Council and managed by the [[Society of Antiquaries]] of Newcastle upon Tyne, one of the world's oldest antiquarian societies.

The City's [[Blackgate]] stands adjacent to the Keep. It was named after Patrick Black, a tenant there in the 17th century.

The Castle Keep and Blackgate can be visited today. It is also notable in having the main East Coast railway line running through the centre of the grounds. In particular, the battlements offer fine views over the [[River Tyne]] quayside, the [[Newcastle Cathedral| cathedral]] and [[Newcastle Central station]].
