About Bensham
- Bensham is one of the oldest settled areas of Gateshead and was a prosperous residential district in the Victorian era, when its elevated position above the Tyne made it attractive to the merchants and industrialists who worked in the factories and shipyards along the river. The neighbourhood is home to Saltwell Park, one of the finest Victorian public parks in the north of England, which was opened in 1876 and features a lake, a maze, a bandstand, and a restored Victorian mansion. The park was voted the best park in the UK by the Green Flag Award scheme in 2005 and continues to be one of the most popular open spaces in Gateshead.
