About Pollen in Newcastle upon Tyne

Newcastle upon Tyne experiences peak spring pollen from March to June; Birch and Ash pollen, originating from Jesmond Dene, Leazes Park, and urban street trees, dominates early; Oak pollen follows into June. Grass pollen peaks May-July, widely dispersed from the vast Town Moor and Tyne/Ouseburn riverbanks.

The Tyne Valley’s sheltered topography and coastal proximity influence localised pollen trapping and spread; late-season mould spores, peaking August-October, proliferate from damp leaf litter and decomposition within urban green spaces.
