Gateshead's land mark, A contemporary sculpture, designed by Antony Gormley - The above is a Steel sculpture of an angel, 20 metres (66 ft) tall, with wings measuring 54 metres (177 ft) across.The wings do not stand straight sideways, but are angled 3.5 degrees forward; Gormley did this to create "a sense of embrace".
It stands on a hill on the southern edge of Low Fell, overlooking the A1 and A167 roads into Tyneside, and the East Coast Main Line rail route, south of the site of Team Valley.
