OCC013 Newcastle Grainger Street - Zombie Shopper

Grey's Monument, Newcastle upon Tyne, Tyne and Wear, England, UK

Grainger Street was laid out during the redesign of the city centre by the architect John Dobson, Town Clerk John Clayton, and landowner and entrepreneur Richard Grainger in the late 19th century.

Grand, wide thoroughfares, bounded by splendid buildings in the neo-classical style, converge at Grey's Monument. Originally to have been Seven Dials, a business and market centre, the plans were simplified before the building was completed. The monument was the result of an architectural competition.

• This chap is oblivious to all around him, including his significant other who is wearing that long-suffering expression many will recognise. His earphones are at the ready for further isolation. Put it in your pocket, look around you, engage with what's going on.
