The Monument Mall is a shopping centre in central Newcastle upon Tyne, England owned by St Martins Property Group. It opened in 1990 adjacent to the Monument station on the Tyne and Wear Metro. It is also directly in front of Grey's Monument and Grey Street, and has an entrance on Northumberland Street.

Open seven days a week, Monument Mall has three floors of stores and is home to a variety of national and independent retailers offering a large range of products. These stores include TK Maxx, Newcastle United Official Club Store, Imag-e-nation, and Sports World. The Mall also has entrances to Fenwick and Peacocks (formerly Virgin Megastores), both of which were in existence prior to the construction of the mall.

There are shops on the lower ground floor TK Maxx, Toni & Guy and Imag-e-nation. Ground Floor tenants include Newcastle United, Art, Millie's Cookies and Evans, while Sports Direct occupies the entire first floor. The whole of the top floor is given over to the Food Court which has now closed. Small independent stalls featuring jewellery and other accessories can be found near the escalators at ground floor level.

The Mall opens from 8am-6pm every day except Sunday. On Sunday trading laws restrict opening times to 11am-5pm.

Vacancy Rates

The Mall has recently seen high vacancy rates with the closure or re-location of key stores such as Boots, Newcastle United Club Shop, Benetton and Sportizus. With the redevelopment of nearby Eldon Square and Eldon Gardens providing larger and more flexible options for retail premises it is unlikely that these vacancies will be filled in the near future.
