People and community are central to plans submitted by Northumberland Estates for a major high-quality and sustainable mixed-use development in North Tyneside. The proposals at Killingworth Moor will provide much-needed high-quality new housing, schools, services and employment opportunities within North Tyneside and includes a primary and secondary school, a local centre including shops and a medical centre, commercial space and 452 new homes – many of which will be provided as affordable housing for rent and sale. 

Sustainability within the rural economy and the protection of natural capital remains at the heart of the Estate's operations and we are proud to support the Centre for Rural Economy at Newcastle University as it celebrates 30 years of research into rural development, policy, food, society, and the wellbeing of communities.

Northumberland Estates has submitted plans for a solar farm as part of its renewable energy strategy with the potential to power nearly 9,000 homes each year.

Northumberland Estates has obtained planning permission for a Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) site which could help power thousands of homes with renewable energy in North Tyneside.
