Trinity Square, Gateshead

Trinity Square is a shopping and leisure centre in Gateshead, Tyne and Wear, England. The new centre was constructed on the site of former multi-storey car park and shopping complex going by the same name, which originally opened in 1967. The former Trinity Square was noted for its Brutalist architecture produced by Rodney Gordon when he worked for the Owen Luder Partnership. The car park had a prominent role in the 1971 film Get Carter, so is commonly referred to as the Get Carter car park. The demolition of the car park structure itself started on 26 July 2010 and was complete by early October of the same year. The shopping centre opened in 2013.

Yeshiva L'zeirim Tiferes Yaacov

Yeshiva L'zeirim Tiferes Yaacov (Hebrew: ישיבה לצעירים תפארת יעקב), commonly referred to as Yeshiva Ketana, is a yeshiva ketana located in Gateshead, England. The yeshiva opened in 1977. The rosh yeshiva is Rabbi Ezriel Yaffe, a graduate of the Gateshead Kolel. Rabbi Moshe Chaim Dunner served as mashgiach until his death in 2025. It also included a Preparatory Academy, providing a year of schooling for boys aged 15 to 16. The yeshiva building has 24 hour protection by security guards, funded by a government grant administered by the Community Security Trust. From their opening they had been located at a building on Gladstone Terrace. An Ofsted report in 2017 found that the premises did not meet basic standards, including because the toilets were not provided with hot water. In 2014, the yeshiva bought the building of the former Swallow Hotel on High West Street, which had previously gone bankrupt and been abandoned due to the competition from the nearby Hilton Hotel. They bough it for a fraction of the building's value, and the sale was supported by philanthropists including the Pels and Reichmann families. They received planning permission in 2014 and converted the guest bedrooms into housing for 250 students and staff. They then built the main study hall on the site of the former restaurant area, and built teaching rooms and catering and dining areas. The main entrance was refurbished with a reclad canopy, brick cladding and small windows, and improved security by building a two-metre iron fence and automatic sliding gate. The new building was opened in July 2024, and the inaugaration ceremony was attended by rabbis Shimon Galai and Dovid Cohen from Israel, and a letter written by Meir Zvi Bergman for the occasion was read. Zanvil Weinberger performed, and the event was photographed by Shuki Lehrer from Israel.
