The Angel of the North - Gateshead

Looking west from 200 feet up to see The Angel of the North with the A1 behind it.
This sculpure, by Antony Gormley OBE, has become the defining image of the
north-east of England. It's 65 feet high and over 175 feet wide.
(That's 20 metres by 54 metres in new money.)


The people below give you some idea of the scale.

You can see parts of Washington, Birtley and Chester-le-Street.


Getting a little more intimate with the lady.
