    Gateshead Riverside - Pipewellgate

    Rise and Fall
    Rise and Fall: Lulu Quinn

     

    The Gateshead Riverside to Pipewellgate walk takes in Riverside Park which was landscaped during 1960-1970. During the late 1980's and in the early 1990's a number of sculptures were introduced within the park. The development of the park as an 'art venue' and a valuable open space for local people continues to this day.
