Gosforth is a suburb of Newcastle upon Tyne, situated to the north of the city.  Modern day Gosforth dates back to 1826 as a settlement known for several decades as Bulman Village. Apart from South Gosforth, many residential districts of Gosforth are suffixed "Park". There is Bridge Park, Brunton Park, Gosforth Park (including Newcastle Racecourse), Grange Park, Greystoke Park, Grove Park, Melton Park, Newcastle Great Park and Whitebridge Park. East of the Great North Road, Garden Village was developed on 'garden suburb' lines in the 1920s to house workers at the nearby LNER electric train depot (now the Metro depot). One of the newest expansions of Newcastle is the Great Park to the north of Gosforth. Other popular areas are Kingston Park served by two Metro stations and well situated for the Airport and A1.
