Two Newcastle tower blocks will disappear from the city’s skyline in a matter of months.

The Titan House and Hexham House high-rise apartments in Walker will be replaced by 50 affordable homes, as part of the regeneration of the Church Walk area.

Newcastle City Council announced plans to remove the 16-floor blocks in 2018.

It's now expected demolition work, which could take around nine months, will start after a contractor is appointed next month.
