March 31, 2010 Copthorne Hotel

Taken on this mornings ride into work, the Copthorne Hotel on the Newcastle Quayside taken from the Gateshead side of the river just near the High Level Bridge.
The hotel sits between the High level and Queen Elizabeth (Metro) bridge.
You can see lots of flotsam on the river from the big storm that passed through the Upper Tyne valley yesterday swelling the River to a point where it nearly flooded the Quayside in Newcastle - It did wash lots of material down the river and out to sea.
