Dinnington, Tyne and Wear

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Dinnington is a village and civil parish in the metropolitan borough of Newcastle in Tyne and Wear, England. It is about nine miles north of the city centre, near Newcastle International Airport.

Dinnington, Tyne & Wear, postcode NE13, is about 6.9 miles from the Newcastle City Centre. Formerly a coal-mining village with at least four pits within 2 miles, Dinnington has now turned into a more 'property-developed area', with the local farmhouse and all its buildings demolished to create housing at rather high-prices at a quite sought-after location. Closely situated within 5 minutes of Newcastle International Airport, the village boasts both ease of access to City Centre and beautiful countryside walks or drives.
