About this Event

At some stage during the fifteenth century, a group of seafarers formed a charitable guild on the quayside of Newcastle to support the town’s growing maritime community and their dependents.

Originally named the “Guild of the Blessed Trinity of Newcastle upon Tyne”, they formally came into being on 4th January 1505, securing some land, previously known as Dalton’s Place, in Broad Chare on Newcastle’s Quayside, from Ralph Hebborn, in exchange for a “peppercorn rent”, being a red rose, to be paid yearly on demand, on the feast of John the Baptist (now known as Midsummer’s day).

The Trinity House complex has developed and expanded over more than five hundred years on the Broad Chare site, presenting a wonderful chronological architectural attraction for visitors. To then enter and walk through the buildings is to further discover a unique and fascinating private collection of paintings, ship models, books, furniture, nautical instruments and artefacts from around the world and down through the centuries.


Our private tour will include light refreshments.

Bookings will be taken in 3 groups of 15 so book now to avoid disappointment.
