Eldon Garden Car Park on Percy Street
The centre’s multi-storey car park is operated by Newcastle City Council and has 445 spaces, including 33 disabled bays (Information Now). Its entrance is on Percy Street, serving the shopping centre at 57-59 Percy Street, Haymarket. The car park is open every day from 8am to 10pm (Newcastle City Council).
Between 8am and 7pm, parking costs £2.60 an hour or £13 as a fixed charge from Monday to Sunday. Parking is free between 7pm and 8am (Newcastle City Council). The centre also lists pay-by-phone location code 8101, while Shopmobility Scheme permits allow free parking during the charging period (Eldon Square).
Eldon Square and Other Central Newcastle Parking
Eldon Square car park is another named multi-storey option close to the centre. Newcastle City Council lists 497 spaces, opening every day from 8am to 10pm, with parking charged at £2.90 from 8am to 7pm and free parking from 7pm to 8am (Newcastle City Council). Its capacity makes it a useful alternative when the Percy Street car park is busy.
The Eldon Square multi-storey car park has a height restriction barrier with a maximum clearance of 200 centimetres, or 6 feet 7 inches (AccessAble). Drivers of taller vehicles need to account for that restriction before choosing the site. Both council car parks provide central access to Newcastle shopping streets, but the Percy Street entrance is the more direct choice for the centre.
Busy Shopping Times and Parking Rules Around Eldon
The council car parks operate daily rather than only on weekdays, so Saturday and Sunday shopping trips fall within the same 8am to 7pm charging period as weekday visits (Newcastle City Council). The £13 fixed charge at the Percy Street car park covers the published daytime tariff window, while the hourly charge is £2.60 (Newcastle City Council).
Parking enforcement matters particularly during the evening transition: the published free period begins at 7pm and continues until 8am, while the car park itself remains open until 10pm (Newcastle City Council). The centre’s published Shopmobility arrangement provides free parking for permit holders during the charging period (Eldon Square). The adjoining Eldon Square car park follows the same opening and free-period hours but uses its separate £2.90 daytime charge (Newcastle City Council).
Parksy Spaces Within 126 to 321 Yards of Eldon Garden
Parksy lists a secure monthly space 126 yards from the centre for £75 a month. This is a practical fit for a regular worker or resident who needs a recurring arrangement rather than a short shopping stay.
At 321 yards, five priced spaces offer different day-rate choices: one costs £50 a day, one £2 a day, one £14 a day, one £5.69 a day and one £5.87 a day. The £2-a-day option is below the centre’s £13 fixed daytime charge, while the £5.69 and £5.87 spaces also undercut that fixed charge. The £14 and £50 spaces cost more than the centre’s fixed charge, but a reserved space can beat circling for a bay during busy shopping periods. The 126-yard monthly space can beat repeated daily parking for drivers visiting frequently.
Walking From Central Station Metro and Newcastle Railway Station
Central Station metro station is the nearest listed station, 0.5 miles from the centre and a 10-minute walk away. The route brings rail-based visitors into Haymarket without needing to find a city-centre parking bay, making the station a useful choice for longer shopping or appointment visits.
Newcastle railway station is also around a 10-minute walk away, as is Manors station. Newcastle railway station provides the mainline rail connection, while Manors offers another station approach from the east. The centre’s address at 57-59 Percy Street places the final walk within central Newcastle, with the car parks better suited to visitors carrying bulky purchases or travelling with passengers who need closer vehicle access.
