Jesmond Park

by Doug Hall on March 6, 2011

Each week “The Grid” captures moments in a selected area of Newcastle & the Hunter region that they might not otherwise see or notice.

This week I took a walk through another of Newcastle’s nature spots. Once again the camera forced me to slow down, enjoy the lay of the land and let me see things I didn’t know were there. It was a hot day, and the traffic howled by on the busy Newcastle Rd, but I really didn’t notice it as I enjoyed the well kept parkland that is Jesmond Park.
