Tynemouth Priory: Resting Place of Kings
Three kings, Oswin of Deira (died 651 AD), Osred of Northumbria (died 792 AD), and Malcolm III of Scotland (died 1093 AD) were buried at Tynemouth Priory in its long, often violent, history overlooking the mouth of England’s River Tyne. Today, like the kings buried in its quiet earth, the Priory is an almost forgotten page from history, which makes it a restful place for modern visitors.
