Cullercoats Watch House

Cullercoats Watch House Currently undergoing restoration to preserve for future generations.

A Grade II listed building, arguably one of the most recognisable buildings on the North East Coast and remains a testament to the fishing industry with which Cullercoats is synonymous.

It's Volunteer Week 💙

We are incredibly grateful for all of our Watch House volunteers and everything they do.

From sharing the story of our beautiful building, to fundraising, baking, welcoming visitors, helping at events, carrying out maintenance, and so much more—every contribution makes a difference.

Every single volunteer, trustees included, gives their time freely, generously, and with a genuine passion for preserving and supporting the Watch House.

Thank you all. We truly couldn’t do it without you. Your dedication, enthusiasm, and support are at the heart of everything we achieve.

💙🏡

We know you’ll be missing our wonderful Watch House while we’re closed, so here’s a way to get your Watch House fix in the meantime!

Why not explore some of the other fascinating Watch Houses along this fabulous trail, created by one of our very own Cullercoats Watch House volunteers, Alicia Ward.

Alicia has done a wonderful job showcasing the rich heritage, history, and local links that connect these unique coastal landmarks. It’s a fantastic opportunity to discover more about our maritime past and the communities that helped shape it.

A huge thank you to Alicia for this fantastic piece of work and for helping to keep our local heritage alive for everyone to enjoy.

Have you visited any of the Watch Houses on the trail? We’d love to hear about your adventures in the comments!

How many spiders???

A little video taken on a recent authorised visit to the Watch House site. Everything is stripped back, the door has been moved, and the next stage is new electrical work and plastering. It hasn't been without its problems, but the team have solved them and it's all moving on.

It's wonderful to see that the Watch House work is going full speed ahead, but can we remind you that it's NOT a good idea to "pop your head round the door"? It is a building site - hard hats only - and there are walls coming down and being rebuilt, so it's not safe.

We'll do our very best to keep you informed regularly! Thank you for being interested.
