Reviews of Old Eldon Square
a. v.Eldon Square was built as part of the 1825–40 reconstruction of Newcastle city centre. Designed by Charles Leonard Hartwell, and unveiled by Earl Haig in 1923, the war memorial is situated at the centre of the square. It is a large Portland stone pedestal, with a different relief on each of the four sides. North: the words "Memory Lingers Here" above a bronze sculptured wreath.
South: a sculptured picture of a lion below the dates 1914–1918 and 1939–1945.
East: a bronze relief of Justice, displaying two grieving women and a third (Lady Justice) holding the scales.
West: a bronze relief of Peace, displaying a woman with a child and the Angel of Peace.
On the top is a large bronze equestrian statue of Saint George, the patron saint of infantrymen and cavalrymen, slaying the dragon
P. S.Nice little square next to the shopping mall. Has a temporary free open air cinema set up, which is nice for a day out if the weather is good.
j. b.Always loved this place, especially moving after Rememberance Sunday when all of the wreaths have been placed.
There is a large amount of seating available in the form of benches and each one is dedicated to specific branch of the armed forces.
This summer they had deckchairs and a big screen and this winter a Christmas Market.
K. e.Good place to meeting with Friend
