Town Moor, Urban grassland in Newcastle upon Tyne, United Kingdom.
The Town Moor spans 1,000 acres of open grassland, extending from Spital Tongues and the city center to Gosforth and Jesmond districts.
The land has maintained grazing rights for the Freemen of Newcastle since the 12th century, with rental income managed by the Town Moor Money Charity.
Each June, the land transforms into the site of The Hoppings, which stands as the largest traveling fair across the European continent.
Multiple entry points connect the moor to nearby neighborhoods, offering spaces for running, cycling, and outdoor activities throughout the year.
The green space surpasses the combined size of London's Hyde Park and Hampstead Heath, as well as New York's Central Park.
