This magnificent statue of Neptune welcomes you to the civic centre. As you can see he pours water on to himself and it drips down him and the wall. The reason for Neptune is due to Newcastle’s long history with the sea. A LONGER VIEW is here.

i like this, a fantastic piece of art, pity most of the people in the city dont know it exists.
Great photo. Fantastic piece of art,love it!
Very interesting scultpure. The details of the water dripping is quite realistic and powerful… even though it looks like more blood ;-)
I like the way the rust works with the piece as a whole . It reminds of a bloody crucifix or something.
magnificient , indeed ! wow!
oh i love this one! so cool
At one time there used to be a plaque which read ‘TYNE ‘THE WATER GOD .It has either a bronze or copper coating , which , when it comes in to constant contact with water turns green (ie his hair )
