Attendees to the Sketch Walks day 2 enjoying an afternoon of drawing and sketching.

Heritage Open Days Sketch Walks - Day 2

Steve Pardue September 16, 2024

Saturday 14 September was the second day of the Heritage Open Days Sketch Walks and we followed the same format of the previous day but with different routes.

Today we visited the Grainger Market which was designed by John Dobson and was opened in 1835. Original divided into two parts it included the eastern section, which was a meat market laid out in a series of aisles and a western section, which was a vegetable market constructed as a large open-plan hall. The other group visited Blackfriars and Chinatown. Blackfriars is the only remaining medieval friary in the City and one of Newcastle’s oldest surviving buildings. The friars of the Dominican Order, who lived here wore black cloaks over their white tunics and were nicknamed Blackfriars. Nearby Chinatown and the old City Walls create a blend of cultures that reference the past and are a dynamic reminder of multi cultural Newcastle.
