Newcastle. After a walk down a narrow pathway from the Bridge Hotel I came upon this building in the shadow of the famous High Level Bridge over the River Tyne that dates from the late 16th century. At that time it was Dove's warehouse, storing goods which were being moved along the river. It is now home to this JD Wetherspoon pub. The horseshoe shaped building engulfs a cobbled courtyard which opens into a large pub with many rooms, stone walls, brass topped tables, and dark wooden beams. Out back there is a small patio by the river with a great view of the Tyne Bridge. Lots of beers to choose from but I had to go for a Darkness Prince of Ales from the Exeter Brewing Co., a delicious chocolate stout.
