A valley of workshops, pubs and children's books, and a wooded dene
The lower Ouseburn valley, east of the city centre, is spanned by three bridges and lined with former mills and warehouses. Seven Stories, the national centre for children's books, the Biscuit Factory gallery, Ouseburn Farm and several pubs and music venues sit within a few minutes of each other.
Upstream, the burn runs through Jesmond Dene, a wooded valley park first laid out by Lord Armstrong. Jesmond itself is a leafy suburb with restaurants and bars along Osborne Road and Acorn Road, and the Great North Museum and Hatton Gallery are on its southern edge near the Haymarket.
