About The Turnbull
The Turnbull is one of Newcastle’s most iconic and historically significant buildings. Originally constructed in 1888 by architect F. W. Rich for Robinson & Co. As a grand Victorian print works, it later expanded in 1897 with a south block and again in 1898 with its distinctive tower. The building, once widely known as Turnbull’s Warehouse, sits on land formerly belonging to a medieval Carmelite monastery and was used in various industrial roles until the late 1990s. In 2001, it was transformed into 48 Manhattan-style loft and penthouse apartments, preserving original architectural features and uncovering artefacts dating back to the 12th century. Today, it stands as a Grade II listed landmark offering luxury city-centre living.
