The name Jesmond is derived from the meaning of Jesus Mound, so it's no surprise that there are plenty of churches in this part of North England. This upscale suburb has plenty of fancy boutiques, posh bars, and quaint cafes dotted along its famous Acorn Road. Jesmond was once the home to industrial pioneer Lord Armstrong, and Jesmond Dene House is now somewhere where visitors can enjoy an overnight stay or an afternoon tea. Near Newcastle-upon-Tyne, Gosforth, and South Heaton, Jesmond has plenty to offer. It's considered to be one of Newcastle's most affluent suburbs and has plenty of opportunities to shop, museums to peruse, and wide open parkland to walk through when the sun is shining.
