Fenwicks Christmas window display with crowd

My favourite shop: Fenwicks, Northumberland St, Newcastle

When I relocated from London to the North East, not only did I fall in love with the Geordies and the wonderful countryside, I also discovered the joys of the institution that is Fenwicks.

Whether its the iconic Christmas window, the fabulous range of brands, or being able to indulge in Colman’s fish and chips, Fenwicks does an amazing job at mixing grand retail whilst celebrating the culture of the North East.
