MPX5162511: The medieval Black Gate in the historic heart of Newcastle is about to live up to its name as it takes on a new lease of life. Originally, the 13th Century entrance to the castle which gave the town its name, it is to become the gateway to Old Newcastle Ð the location from which the city developed. Work is now complete on a programme which began last April to overhaul and refurbish the Black Gate for its latest role. In contrast to its name, the comprehensive makeover has left the Black Gate gleaming in as much as any medieval building can gleam. It is 130 years since the completion of the last restoration of the building, after a successful campaign to save it from demolition.Trodden by the feet of generations, The Black Gate, once a main entrance to the city of Newcastle, remains little changed by the passage of time. The Black Gate was the last addition to the medieval Castle defences. Mrs Alice Pandrick standing outside the Black Gate, where she lived. . 27th August, 1965 (b/w photo) / Bridgeman Images
