We waited for a nice sunny day to visit the Angel and wow was it worth the visit. So many people think that because they have had a glimpse of this from the motorway, that they can form an opinion about it, but they can't !. Until you have actually walked up to it and seen it up close, you... More

Its an amazing piece of art. Its strong - powerful and yet, something so magical about it.

Here on business, and finally during this trip a colleague drove me out to see this statue. Amazing. Weather was perfect and we were able to spend a nice time sitting there not only viewing this amazing sculpture, but also the surrounding view.

We decided to stop off at the Angel on the way up to Newcastle and glad we did. Plenty of room to park when we got there (saying that, the weather was dire so may be a different story in summer!) and plenty of photo opportunities. If you're passing, it's worth the detour.

On my doorstep but still surprised at the amount of visitors it attracts every time I pass. Was the catalyst that helped Gateshead gain a national identity.
