Gateshead Council

A developer wants to turn what was the home of the Federation Brewery into a £40m leisure complex.

The Gateshead flyover remains closed to traffic, several months after it was deemed unsafe.

Gateshead Council says it has made "the difficult decision" to decommission Priory Court.

The burial ground will use biodegradable coffins and make use of wildlife, an application says.

Demolition of the concrete structure in Gateshead will be completed by March, the council says.

The Wallsend-born musician's donation helps maintain free access to the arts for children.

A competition imagining how the structure could look if not demolished aims to "spark conversation".

Residents of Priory Court are unsure of future plans after a flood damaged its electrical system.
