The name is derived from the Duke of Newcastle who owned most of the coal concessions in the area. The pub is a typical 1930s roadhouse, designed to serve the council estate behind it. Note the fine ceramic frontage complete with coloured coat of arms. This pub has not suffered from unnecessary renaming!
