Centurion Bar, Newcastle Central Station
The Centurion Bar was originally built in 1893 as a grand waiting lounge and bar for first class passengers, designed by John Dobson as part of Newcastle Central Station (Grade 1 Listed). The lounge closed in the 1960’s and for a time was used as cells by British Transport Police! In 2000 the building was acquired and restored by Keeping Inn Ltd and run as a bar.
